Description: My Mother & Mother-in-Law buried their husbands, as do many. ~~At the Grave of a Husband~~ "O God, behold and see the sorrow of her heart. Widowed and bereft she mourns the loss of the dear companion of her heart. 'Now sleep beneath this tomb, dear husband, and while thou cannot hear me, neither can thou see my tears'. My existence is now a void; joy and happiness have fled with thee, and I must bear the burden of life alone, for thy hand can no longer protect me, nor my heart repose on thine. I pray, O Lord, that the precious memories of our happy years together, may ever be an incentive to noble and sanctified living. Father of all, grant that the soul of my beloved husband be bound up in the bond of eternal life. Amen.'" [copied]
