" Happy Birthday "
So dearly loved and always treasured by me throughout our years together. You fought a brave and courageous battle with cancer for 116 days and I pleaded with God above to take me instead but He needed you more in His heavenly home to help the sick with your loving compassion, healing hands, and spirituality.

"Your photos" may be framed but in my heart you have remained, each and every second since that sad and painful day. Despite efforts of others (you know whom) I have somehow with God's help and grace have managed to keep our home and got on with my life the way you asked me to twice before going on your journey to help the sick above.

God has made but yet another decision as He needed a trouble shooting accountant upstairs to sort out His heavenly books of account and called out my name to join you sooner than anticipated.

Like you I to have recently been diagnosed with a unique and rare very aggressive cancer that spread throughout my body within 24 days and as there is no cure at most (if granted) given 3 to 4 months before I go on my next journey.

Thanking you as my guardian angel and the prayers of so many (and the grace of God) like you have been spared so far of the many side effects of that dreadful disease.

If roses grow in heaven God please, pick a bunch, give them to "Jacqui" with a big hug and kiss and tell her they are from me on this her birthday in your heavenly home.

Jacqui please place your foot in the door for me to sneak inside before the devil knows I have arrived. Always deep in our hearts and prayers .
Your beloved husband Richard and your adopted daughter Vella, Darwyn, and Hannah (who treasures your 2 favourite porcelain vintage dolls) xoxox
