To My Steve When I have the best, why would I look for more? Nobody can ever fill your shoes. You will be my husband forever. I am so in love with you and I miss your every being every second of every day. I am counting down the seconds until we are together again. The following words are for you my love What if I told you it was all meant to be? Would you believe me, would you agree? Its almost that feeling that we've met before so tell me that you dont think Im crazy when I tell your love is here and now. A Moment like this. Some people wait a lifetime for a moment like this. Some people search forever for that one special kiss. I cant believe its happening to me. Some people wait a lifetime for a moment like this. Everything changes, but beauty remains. Something so tender I cant explain. Well I may be dreaming but til I awake.. Can we make the dream last forever? And I'll cherish all the love we share for a moment like this. Some people wait a lifetime for a moment like this. Some people search forever for that one special kiss. I cant believe its happening to me. Some people wait a lifetime for a moment like this. The speed of waiting love of all. I wanna know that you will catch me when I fall. So let me tell you this. Some people wait a lifetime for a moment like this... Some people search a lifetime for a moment like this. Some people search forever for that one special kiss. I cant believe its happening to me. Some people wait a lifetime for a moment like this. It is so hard to deal with your angel date and then June 30, which is our anniversarary as you called it, because you are not physically here to celebate with me. I am and always will be in love with you and I miss you. I long to feel your arms around me and for your kisses. This is a card you gave me on May 21. Hi Sherry :-)! Golly - would you believe that someone who is used to scrivening for a living can be at a loss for words to adequately express his total delight and thrill that he feels from the Joy of making contact with you? Well, you should... 'cuz I actually am at a bit of a loss when it comes right down to it. So, I'll muddle a bit...our re-linking was, on the surface, a great pleasure for me. Our conversations just flowed so freely and naturally that I'm simply quite Joyously Amazed :-) I truly & very deeply enjoy every moment that I spend with you, Sherry. The relaxed level of comfort, the total ease that I feel with you is a very special feeling...one that is rare enough to cause me to want to hold it dear and cherish it. Perhaps the quiet feeling of 'inner knowing' shouldn't be over-analyzed, but rather simply acknowledged & celebrated...I look forward to many hours, days, weeks...enjoying your being...(more later) Steve ********************************************* The following is the email you sent me just before our wedding day. Ironically, it was emailed to me on June 23, the same date that you died in 2006. "Yes, Sherry Lynn, you _are_stuck with me...for as long as you will ever have me (and then some, if I have anything to do with it). There 'ain't no glue stronger' than the intense bond I feel between you and myself, Sherry... and it's truly going to take one heck of a tussle to create a rift of any sorts. I want to remind you, Sherry, of when I told you that I can be _fiercely_ loyal when I feel the urge...I feel an undieing loyalty to you. _Know _that_ in the deepest recesses of your heart, your soul, your entire being. There is only one grossly unfair thing that you could possibly do to me, and that is for you to pull back because you fear that something would be 'unfair' to lay upon me. We _both_ know that life is not necessarily any piece of cake...we're +both+ basically starting over --- we_both_ need to build anew from the fires that have molded us into who we are today. I feel blessed, very blessed indeed, to have received the Gift of You in my life... the very Gift that I have needed for so long to continue with my own rebuilding along lines that are not always clear to us as we proceed along the path of life. The Gift of You fills in many blank spots, Sherry, and gives me clarity and motivation and inspiration. I humbly accept the Gift of You with Joyous reception and full determination to not only honor and cherish, but to explore and use the Gift of You to build with new fervor, to Create the Reality of us. With you at my side through the rest of our lives, Sherry, WE will be continuously as two parts of a greater Wholeness that in turn nourishes and provides sustinence to the wholeness of each of us as individuals. I Love You, Sherry Lynn...I want you -- every bit of you -- with me... I need you for everything -- to be the recipient of what I can offer and give to you, and for you in turn can offer and give to me. Lord only knows, I have faults enough to overwhelm an army... I am far from perfect... But I have learned to recognize real love, and to want to give it freely and without reservation, as well as to accept love in return. I ask merely that you join with me, and that I join with you, side by side to care, to share, to assure, to reassure one another both through today and all of the tomorrows -- that we take the Joys together, however meager they might be, and to celebrate them...together. IF ONLY YOU KNEW JUST HOW PERFECT YOU ARE TO ME.......MAYBE THAT IS WHY I DON'T HAVE YOU BY MY SIDE AND YOU ARE NOW IN HEAVEN. I WOULD GLADLY TAKE A LOT LESS PERFECTION JUST TO HAVE YOU BACK HERE WITH ME. I WILL ALWAYS BE DEEPLY IN LOVE WITH YOU. YOU ARE WHAT I WAITED MY WHOLE LIFE FOR. YOU WERE SO GOOD TO ME, TO CRYSTAL, TO MATTY AND TO KYLE. YOU ARE FOREVER IN MY HEART AND YOU WILL BE MY HUSBAND UNTIL THE DAY I LEAVE THIS EARTH. I AM AND ALWAYS WILL BE MARRIED TO YOU. AS I HAVE SAID SO MANY TIMES, WHEN YOU HAVE THE BEST THERE IS NO NEED TO LOOK FURTHER. I HAVE THE BEST....IT JUST SO HAPPENS THAT YOU ARE WITH ME SPIRITUALLY NOW. FOREVER AND ALWAYS, YOUR SHERRY LYNN *************************************************** If only I could find out what really happened to you then I could start the healing process. I will forever be in love with you. You are nothing but the best and I am the one that is blessed with being your wife. That is a privilege and I will always be your wife. Nobody could ever take your place and when you have the best, why look further? Nobody can take away from me the fact that I am your wife, no matter how hard they try. And try they have. But together, we won't let that happen will we? I want the world to know that you are and always will be in love with me and I don't want the world to forget you. I want them to know just how special you were and always will be, especially to me and Matty. Now you are there with your grandfather that you love so much and with my brother, my grandparents and Atilla. I am so very jealous that they have you with them by their side all the time. Please come visit me often as it will make my life easier to live until my time is up. **************************** About Steve's diagnosis of cancer. Steve wrote this for our youngest grandson Matty. Steve we miss you so much. Oh, if I could just hold you in my arms one more time I would never let you go. I am so empty now. Your loving wife and Matty's Nana Sherry I'm Matty! You might coulda seen my pictures here before -- you know, when I had my clamps in my hair and when I ate my birthday cake when I got bigger and turned FOUR! Steve took my new picture... it's here too! I've been workin' really hard helpin' out my Nana Sherry and Steve around our house. Steve's teaching me how to count and build things! Can we build it? YES WE CAN! I've been staying here since a long day ago on account of my mommy's been in the hospital for a really long long time since I was only Two! Steve says I've been in Arizona since January but I can't know what that means yet. But when I get bigger I will! He takes real good care of me and shows me lots and lots of things. We have fun. I really like the Dinosaur Museum and looking at the mountains but I don't like cactuses 'cuz they can stick me and make blood! I help Steve build stools and tables and chairs and doors too! He takes me to Story Time at Miss Marty's but when I'm bad I have to sit in time out. I really like to go to Home an Depot with Steve and we get things but my favorite store is Sam's Club and Harbor Freight. It's my favorite fun store! It's better than Chuckee Cheese. Steve says those stores at my home too but nobody ever takes me to them there. I take good care of him during the day when my Nana Sherry's at her work 'cuz he's a good guy most of the time and he always watches out for me real good so I don't get hurt. He's my best buddy! But now I'm kinda scared. For the past days we've been going to his doctors and he's been having some pretty bad headaches too. I'm learning to use my indoors voice a lot but sometimes I forget. There's this big bump on his neck that I can't know about 'cuz I'm not big yet. He lets me feel it. It's hard. It don't seem right. I helped his doctors take lots of funny pictures. He told me they're his innards but I'm not sure. They're kinda boring to look at. Today he's going to Mayo. I like that stuff on my ham and ketchup sandwiches Steve makes for me. I eat 'em all gone. But he says this Mayo is different doctors. I'm gonna take care of Steve's mom today and help her watch TV while he gets a sammich at the doctor's!! I promised I'd be real good so he brings me a ham and peanut butter sammich too. Then I'll take really good care of him and drive him around to get apple and ciminon soup so he'll get all better!! Then we can go to the park when it's not too hot. Steve's gonna help me catch a fish and ride the horses when I grow up bigger! I'm kinda scared but Steve's not. We laugh a lot and he helps me feel better but sometimes I'm still kinda scared... Be safe and careful! I'll see you later!!! Matty Today I'm Matty but sometimes I can be Bratty :-) |
