Gone too soon

[Brazil Man]

My wife is gone too soon. She was 60 when she passed away because of lung cancer. I expected she lived at least up to her 80s.
The song below helps to express my feelings.

Brazil Man, I know exactly how you feel. 

We bought  a caravan and planned to go to so many places. We went to a few and then he went off to a place without me! We had such plans, all taken. Terry took up fishing and was researching how to do it all. He loved it. I found a password of his on a fishing site just today and his password was "late starter"! Oh how I wish he was here and we had "our" life back! Not going to happen here in this life. But it will in another and I hang onto that belief. Hope you do too noises!

Dear Kay

I know it will be a hard day but I hope you will be able to concentrate on the good memories. My thoughts are with you.

Today he would have been 68.

When I was a teenager I had a BF, Louie, he was very sweet, we ran into each other years later and I got to meet his wife, Kathy, and it's been uncanny to see the similarities we've had.  Both in a long term marriage to an Italian.  Both live in the country in a mobile home with land.  Both raised Nazarene and now Baptist.  Both lead morning worship at our churches.  Today I learned his wife's birthday is today.  It felt weird, like we were peas of a pod living separate lives.  I hope this (grief) is one thing he doesn't have to go through for a long long time...
