We met in the fall of 1976, in our junior high school years. I was just starting 8th grade and she was in 7th. On the day we first met we became instant friends. We would gather with our little group of friends to attend school dances, and parties. As time went on we both had our girlfriends and boyfriends. And of course there were always those promises that we knew we were each promised in heaven. But heaven never seemed to agree. I never had many girlfriends in school. I was more intersted in playing. Lynda had a few boyfriends. Each time she would get dumped I would be right there to defend her and help pick up her broken heart. We always seemed to find ourselves right back in each others arms. As time went on it was getting obvious that we were being brought together time and time again for some reason.
We entered high school with the usual teenage attitude of "we know everything". That was ok though, because we did. I had two girlfriends in high school. Well, one was more like a friend. The other was more interested in having sex. I never had the desire to "be" with her that way. While at the same time Lynda had her boyfriends. We still kept a close eye on each other. Just incase the other was getting hurt in anyway. I remember when Lynda's old boyfriend decided that he needed to beat her a bit. I have never moved so fast in my life. And he couldn't get away fast enough. From that time on we were inseperable. Heaven played us right into its hand. We were together. Oh there were those times when we would split apart for a bit, but we would always come back to each other.
I left for 18 months for what I call a big party. During those 18 months we remained close friends. She found a boyfriend and I found myself. During my absence she got pregnant. The boyfriend decided that this was her fault and packed up his bags and headed out. Leaving her alone once more. She did just fine. I came home and we got back together. First as friends, then as boyfriend and girlfriend. Time seemed to move fast for us. In a short time we were engaged to be married. I had the usual cold feet, she just stood by me and held my hand until I found my way out of the problem. I can still remember October 11 as if it were yesterday. I can still see her walking down the aisle in that beautiful gown. At my side stood her son. His tiny little hand in mine as we watched "mommy" move towards us on wings of angels. I swear the angels were singing that night for us as we became husband and wife.
Our lives seemed to now be complete. Heaven had brought us together and heaven was watching over us. I remember the littlest of silly things that I still have to do to this day. I guess this is my way of convincing me that I really have the most beautiful person in the world at my side. When we go to bed each night I have to have some part of my body touching hers. This usually is nothing more than our feet locked together as we sleep. Which I can tell you makes for some every interesting moments when one of us tried to roll over. But this is important to me. I have to feel her, to know that this is not some dream about to end with me waking. Since our union together with the blessings of heaven we have been given three wonderful children. Brandon, who is our oldest son. Keelan, who is our middle child. He has since gone on to fly with the angels. And then Tashina. She is our precious little miracle child. She is also daddies pride and joy. I could have never been blessed with a more perfect and beautiful family ever. No man could ever be as lucky as I. We have now been married for almost 11 years. But our lives began together some 21 years ago. There is more than I could ever put here about my wife. She is my life and my joy. My heart only beats for her. My arms ache to hold her each day. My love burns stronger and brighter for her with the passing of everyday. Lynda, my love, my life, I love you always.
Lynda, you are always hearing me say how neat this person is or how neat that person is. I know that I never say it enough to you. But I want you to know that you are my angel. The only person that I will ever want, need or desire in my life. I treasure every moment that we are together. I am always thinking of you when we are apart. Never does a day go by that my heart does not reach out to you in love. With every breath I take I will honor you. You complete me and make me whole. With every beat of my heart I want you at my side. When my last breath leaves this mortal body I will watch you from the Summerlands. Anxious for the day when we can run through the fields of wild flowers once more.
I Love You Forever!!!
