To my precious loving, nurturing, ever faithful husband. Thank you for the 34 wonderful years where we shared our lives. We ministered together, laughed often, dreamed our dreams and began to walk them out.

Thank you for always looking so handsome. Thank you for always taking such good care of Brandon and me, providing, protecting and loving us. I will always treasure your touch, the way you looked at me, and your tender voice. What a wonderful example you have been to mankind: strong, intelligent, capable and funny. You are my gentle giant, my rock, my lover, my very best friend! Thank you my darling!

There wasn't enough time on earth, but there will be in heaven. So, until then, I send you all my love and kisses. Honey, I will finish the ministry that we began together. I know in my heart that you will always be with me. Love forever, your wife.
