In response to a comment made on the Life Clowns blog I spoke about why I was single. My husband of 34 years died of cancer 3 1/2 years ago. I still miss him everyday.
He truly taught me to believe that marriage can be about partnership, respect, communication and love. He was so secure in who he was and who we were, that he encouraged me to spread my wings and get involved in things I was interested in...like politics and the theater.
I know that I will miss him everyday....sometimes I turn around to say something to him or listen for his footsteps at the back door when he would come home after work.
Who is gone from your life that you still miss ...and why were they so important to you?
Take a moment to honor that person and share your story.

At this point in our lives(guess it means we are getting older) we have all lost someone that we love. L2R it is a process that we all have to go through....can't side step it...can't take short cuts...it's life.
Unfortunately people that we love,respect and admire come and go from our lives.......hopefully we carry a piece of them with us always....a kind word, a memory of a wonderful time, a life lesson.
The grieving will get better and it doesn't mean that you miss that person any less...it is just life and life does go on. You will get to a place where you can think back on your time with him and smile.
Do tears still slide down my cheeks....hell yes...his birthday is coming up, what would have been our 37th anniversary...the holidays still have an empty ring....but we remember the good and the fun and laughter...and he is always with us.
Dave will always be with you.

30+ years riding and the list is almost endless. I have lost everyone I considered a friend but the one I miss most is J.T. I have spoke of her on here before. She was molested by her step-father starting when she was 13 When she finally told her mom threw her out with nothing at 15. I met her when she was living behind a TV at a friends house. She lived with me for 11 years put her self though school and always had some kind of a job. Worked at a hot dog stand when young and I got her a job as a stripper at the club I worked as soon as she got old enough. As hard a life as she had she always had a smile on her face and never got into that Poor Poor Pitiful ME crap.

L2R, it was very recent that Dave passed away. Grief is wicked and a tricky. Tumbles through you when it pleases. Just hold on to whatever and whoever you need to whenever you need to to get through those times.
Demo, I sheduled you a proctologist appointment. I will pick you up at 3:30 on Thursday. Make sure you are cleansed deary.

L2rd, I'm so sorry for your grief. I can't say I understand, but I do understand pain. I will keep you in my prayers. Stay with us here at BK and you will have a support group who cares and maybe can add some sunlight into the dark place you are right now.

Paddy...the Old Spice.....happened twice with my late husband....let's me know he is there and watching over me.
L2rd...I know ....and these aren't just empty words.....it will get better....you cry because you miss him and you loved him......you need to talk...I'm here.
I guess in my situation I was fortunate.....we had time to prepare, to plan and to do and say everything we needed to prepare for that last day...it did help....there were no regrest about things left unsaid. When someone we love is taken suddenly....we always think about what we didn't say or do.
Grief is a tough thing.

Sunny, I miss my cousin. He was my age and we did everything together. He was so handsome and my first crush. We went to different high schools and would go back and forth to dances. I dated his friends and he dated mine. We could talk about anything. I was so scared when he went to Nam and was ecstatic when he returned alive. What I didn't understand was how he had changed in his mind? One day he took his own life. My life has never been the same. He was my anchor. Thanks for asking, it's not something I talk about very often.
