Today you would have been 92. Now, you are ageless. I rejoice that you and Mom are together, no longer feeling the deep pain of losing each other. You are both free from the physical and mental agonies that tormented you in your final years. You have your mind back, now whole and complete, with no trace of the disease that took you from us long before you died. You are free. You are whole. You are complete.
I miss you both very much, but would never wish that you were still here. Your time has come. And I am coping, in my own way, with life without you in it. But part of you is still here, in my heart, in my mind, in my everyday speech, in the way I approach life. You both live on, in me and the rest of your family.
I just want to say Thank You, for being the best parents anyone could ever want. I love you.
Ruth
