Wheeling you into surgery, you told me I’ll see you on the other side. I know what you meant. You made peace with God a good while back. You were tired. But you kept fighting for us. The last words you mumbled to me yesterday was “I love you”. Oh how many times we’ve said those words. Today you couldn’t open your eyes. But I know you heard every word we said. You coded and they brought you back to life. But a short time later, you died in my arms right where I wanted you to be. It was what we always wanted. I just wasn’t able to leave with you. But I will be back in yours arms one day and we will be together forever.

Thank you for loving me the way that you did and for being my best friend. Thank you for being the most amazing husband, father, and grandfather. Since we were 15, we learned how to love together, how to work together, how to grow together, how to ride together, how to travel together. We did everything together. I was truly blessed when God gave me you. You gave me 37 amazing years of my life. You were the rock of our family. You were the corner post that held the fence up. Your love is what’s going to keep me going. I will never ever be able to love again. My heart will forever be broken.

Randy and I showed everyone what TRUE LOVE is and we showed everyone how easy it is to love. What Faith is all about. What Hope is all about. What Love is all about. What Family is all about. What being happy is all about. We loved with all our hearts. We Believed in each other. We have an abundance of Friends that we made Family. We Trusted in God. We started a True Family. Everything you ever worked for was to give your boys a better life. You raised two fine young men. They will continue on with your legacy. They will take care of their mother, they will take care of the range, and teach their daughters everything you taught them. You loved your granddaughters like they were your own. Your granddaughters were your world. I will never let them forget you. I will cherish all the great memories we made as a couple and as a family forever.

We had so much more to do together, but cancer was brought on six years ago. Our plans were cut way to short. Every day that goes by from now on will be one day closer to you. The road will be tough for me but God is my only answer. When I get there, you be ready, we will start right where we left off and live in paradise forever and ever. Amen. I know you and your dad will be watching over us and will guide us on where we need to go from here.

You know I love you with all my heart. And boy do I have a big heart. You will always have my heart. My heart will never stop aching. Time will never heal it. I’ll wake up every morning but it will never be the same. When I go to bed at night, it will never be the same. I’ll see you on the other side my love. I’ll call you every single day to tell you I Love You. I’ll still cook for you every day and fix your plate. Until we meet again, I love you with all my heart. Fly High and Rest In Peace My Love.
