Precious Ms. Becky,
I am so sorry for the loss of your husband, the man you said youhave been with since you were 15 years old. That’s quite a love story.I can’t wait to hear more stories about Mr. Robert. I have prayed that God eases your pain. You say that he was one of a kind, and I know he must’ve been a kind man because you are one of the kindest people I have ever known. I thank you for the times you have supported me through some of the darkest days in my life and I want to be there for you now.
Sending my love and prayers to you and your family.

Thank you my friend. It was a shock to us as well. Marrying Robert was the best decision I’ve ever made. He was one of a kind and I can’t imagine life without him. So glad to hear from you.
