Jake and I used to date and were engaged to marry. We dated from late 1989 until early 1997. We shared so much and loved much too. There are quite a bit of memories that I have of him and us. That have came flooding back since his death. (He passed away just a few months after being diagnosed with Pancreatic Cancer.)Him and I shared a great love , and I learned so much from "our" time together. Though , we ended up going our separate ways , I did hold a special love for him. One that he also held for me too. Through it all we made a promise to one another that we would forever love one another. No matter where life took us , or how far apart we were. And that I know we both fulfilled. Rest in peace Jake and again "Three Words" forever. And Jake , I still miss the roses.....

With a sad heart this is updated. I lost our baby Benny on November 08 , 2007. Baby Benny is the white kitty that Jake is holding in the picture to the right. During our time Jake and I had two cats Benny and Shadow. I still have my baby Shadow , but I miss baby B-Benny terribly. Rest in peace baby boy. And Jake , you best take care of him !! Until I get there and can do it myself!! Until we meet again , I do miss the both of you. Love you B-Benny !!! :-(
