Dearest Cindy, my heart broke for you when I read this. A bittersweet day. Yes, he's with the Lord and healed. Yet, you all ache with missing him. You waited a long time for a good guy that loved you. Glad you had these years together. Hang on to those memories. Hang on to GOD. HE'S hanging on to you. Am available for hugs when needed. Love Bev
