Trust me, I'm not hearing voices or anything but I felt her presence last night as I was going to bed and I knew she would never want to be the source of my sorrow or pain so I knew, in order to honor her and her love, I will move forward with her in my heart and live my life. I have been talking to her out loud telling her that I love her as I did frequently this year when no other words would matter while she was going through what she went through. Somehow, it is comforting to me to just talk to her. I have been email with the widow of one of her cousins (she had a close knit, fairly large family all in the same town) and she told me she still does that 30 years after losing her husband! Speaking of family, her father was one of 6 brothers who all went off to WWII and all came home to this small (at that time) Texas town! I never got to meet Yvonne's father but I have felt a bond with him anyway and know I would have like to have talked with him... we both love gardening. I will miss being with Yvonne in the physical world but she will always be with me in spirit!
