An ever lasting love.

God blessed him. 1. He had found true love. 2. He knew he had true love.

What a tribute to Lorraine and what a tribute to love.

The poor man. My heart goes out to him. I'm visiting my 92 year old uncle next week who lost his wife of 60 years a couple years ago, so I can really understand what he's experiencing. They were a beautiful couple:

Thanks, DFG for posting such a sweet/sad story. It’s a shame your thread was so thoughtlessly defiled. And thanks to you who expressed condolences for my loss.

Blessings to you,
Otter
