He was such a quiet hardworking man that i met in 1955

He was a good dancer .No stamped on feet in the quickstep and omg taller than me !


Most guys who asked me to dance I stood over them so I decided stand not sit !

We “courted “ for two years ,got engaged after 6 months in 1956 and married august 1957

We were married for 58 years when we lost him

It’s been very lonely since but strangely got used to being in the home on my own

But my health problems this last year have also been wish he was here to hug me and support me

Thank you
Florence and Ann

We wonder where the time goes !

Have got used to living on my own but still often think he is in the house I just can’t see him

I do talk to his photo and too i tell him how much I love and miss him

I have his ashes still and our daughter has instructions of don’t care where you scatter us just as long as we are together

I couldn’t bear not to be with him

Even though I feel as if I have lost two years it still seems so much closer than 7 years ( or five).
