My Husband, my friend..I will miss you so very much Dave. We had 15 years and I took it for granted there'd be at least 15 more but now I'm on my own and my life will be so empty without you to share it with. I'm so sad that this awful disease invaded your body and took you away after five short months. I will love you and miss you always. I truly hope there is more to life than our time here on earth and that you are reunited with loved ones and safe in their arms. RIP my lovely man.
