Happy Heavenly Birthday to my Hubby

June 23, 2022 10 Comments

My Last of Firsts Without Dave!

Today is Dave’s 1st Heavenly Birthday and today is also my last of the “firsts” without him. I’ve gone through our Anniversary, 4th of July, Thanksgiving, my Birthday, Christmas, New Years, Valentine’s Day and all other meaningful holidays and special days without him. They say that the first year of “firsts” without your loved one is difficult and it sure is.

A year ago, Dave pushed hard to make it to his birthday before taking his journey to heaven. It was going to be his 70th birthday and he wanted to make it to that milestone. Dave passed away three days later. Whenever Dave set his mind on a certain goal, he usually always succeeded.

Happy Birthday in Heaven Dave and I hope you have the best celebration ever! I will never let today become just another day because it will always be YOUR special day. A lot of us sure miss you! Love and miss you lots, your loving wife.

    We don’t know each other, but I have been thinking about you living this next part of your life without your dear Dave. The heavenly birthday card you sent him was so touching. He will always be watching over you.

      Thanks so much Brenda. It’s hard but I’m managing. He was a good teacher too!

    I know all about those firsts, and hope for you that it does get easier. It has not for me and it’s been six years now. I still miss him every day and every special day is still hard. Our anniversary and Valentines are the hardest, because he was such a romantic and made a really big deal of those days. I still feel really blessed though that I had a wonderful man for thirty years who made me feel cherished every day and left me with so very many beautiful memories. Hope you have that too! God bless you!

      So sorry for your loss as well Betty. Dave left me with a lot of happy memories that overtake the suffering he went through with the bone cancer and that helps me knowing where he is.

    Hi Debbie, you don’t know me but after reading your card, I felt I had to respond. You definitely loved Dave and he for you. What a blessing. There are so many couples who are not experiencing this closeness. My your loving memories bring you comfort as each day passes. Your heart hurts because you have loved so much.

    Blessings,

    Kathy

      Hi Kathy, yes I can actually 100% say that the both of us found true love and we were ripped apart but I’m doing well knowing he is no longer suffering.
