Well here we are dear November 9th 22 months now I've been without you, and he's next few months the holiday season is going to be the worst time just like last year when I fell into a dark hole being so alone without you over these holidays, this is when I miss you the most it starts out around Thanksgiving right on through Christmas your birthday our anniversary Valentine's Day and of course that worst day of my life the day you want to be with the Lord, I just wish you could be with me somehow through this time let me know that you're here with me in spirit and soul because it just isn't the same Claudia not having you here with me. I said it before I'll say it again the day you died Claudia I died with you it just seems like there's no purpose anymore, all's I do is keep replaying all our memories in my head wishing it never happened, that's all I have left Claudia is our memories that we had so remember Claudia I love you I miss you I will always be your husband and please be with me let me know you're with me through these next couple months I love you dear your husband

Here it is Claudia 17 months, so hard to believe, the months keep continuing on and I just get lonelier and lonelier with each month, I come to you here on this page every month I feel this is the only connection I have left with you, my only communication my only way to let you know that I still love you and I miss you terribly, and I truly do Claudia I miss you so much nobody understands they say time will heal the pain well I don't know how much time they're talking about because it's not healing mine, the hurt that I feel not having you get stronger and stronger it's not diminishing, as I say every month I wish there was a way I could see you feel you touch you hear you one more time I'd give anything to be able to do that,, I love you sweetheart so hard to understand why all this happened, I just pray now you're happy you're pain-free you're up there in the Lord's Kingdom smiling and I will see you again sweetheart once I make it there I love you and miss you terribly your husband

Here we are dear now at 15 months,just so hard to believe you have been gone that long, you would be happy to know that your family (daughter's & grandkids) are closer then ever, Beth and Cassie and I especially have become close,they brought me out of that dark place I fell into when I lost you. You always told me if you went before me to promise you I would not turn my back on your kids and forget about them,I promised you I wouldn't,and I think you would be happy with the relationship we have.somtimes it's hard when we're all together,that's when your are missed the most I just know you would be so happy at those times.remember Claudia you are so missed and still so loved,and you always will be...love forever your husband

Here we are claudia,January 9th I can't believe we're coming up onto a year that you've been gone it seems like it was yesterday you were sitting here with me but yet it seems like an eternity since the last time I've been able to hold you and hug you you have no idea how much I sit here at night just wanting to be able to roll over and hold you and feel you,here voice anyting it really sucks not being able to do that all those years I took it for granted and now that I yearn for it,it's not here., Claudia I miss you so much they tell me it'll get easier over time it's been almost a year Claudia and it hasn't gotten easier
here it's gotten worse if anything, it's like each day gets harder than the day before each week gets
harder than the week before each month gets harder than the month before,, why did this have to happen another 10-15 years and it would have been a full life with you, never did I think you'd be gone so early I was supposed to go before you dammit Claudia, I would do anything to be able to see you again hold you again feel you again talk to you again anything Claudia I would truly give up the rest of my life be able to spend 20 more minutes with you I love you so much more than I ever have it's just growing stronger I hope I see you soon love your husband

Here we are with another month Claudia, 8 months now, it's so hard to believe you've been gone for eight months, and I miss you so much each one of those days are harder than the day before. I sit and wonder everyday if there was something different I could have done, anything I could have done so you could still be here with me, if only it just constantly goes through my mind. I truly miss you so much Claudia if I could only have you back I would give anything in this world to have you back again I love you Claudia,I always will love you until I see you again.

It's been one month since you left me. People say time will heal the pain. I find that to be quite the opposite. Every day is harder than the day before. You have no idea how hard it's been for me and how bad I truly miss you, talking to you, and touching you!! If I could, I'd give 20 years of my life to have 20 minutes with you. I love you and will never forget you
Wait for me. We will be as one again.
Love,
Your Husband Forever and Beyond
