Today is Jimmy Wallace's birthday. It's hard for me to believe that he would have been 83 years old if the cancers hadn't killed him. He was so healthy and perfect, except for the cancers. Yes, I say perfect because he was perfect. He was all I wanted in a husband and we were very happy. It's hard for people to believe that Jimmy and I never argued about anything. This doesn't mean that we thought alike, but only that we respected each others opinions and didn't criticize each other for having differences. We got along great because we enjoyed each others company. We spent 24 hours a day together enjoying life and of course each other. We never took each other for granted and told each other that we loved them almost daily. The love that we had for each other wasn't just in the spoken word, but in our actions towards each other. It was in the way we treated each other.
I read a little verse yesterday, but it didn't have an author, but I'm going to quote it here in remembrance of Jimmy.
Jimmy,
Today is your birthday.
"Remembering you is easy,
I do it every day.
Missing you is the heartache,
That will never go away."
Jimmy, Thank you for the spectacular sunrise this morning. I know that it was you reaching out to me from Heaven. I felt your presence just as soon as I stepped outside to witness such a beautiful sight. You always did know how to cheer me up :)
Below is a special poem for Jimmy
