One year ago, my good friend and Brother of the Art Devious and I both lost our wives.
Lorena Rey. Kimberly Davis. Both were gorgeous. Both were giving, kind souls who loved life. Both exemplified the best a man can find in a mate: Loving, thoughtful, supportive. Both were shining candles that held fast against the darkness that presses in about us all, and illuminated the lives of all they touched. Both were too young to go. While I had the benefit of more time as husband than Devious, his relationship was no less profound, and the loss no less heartbreaking. We both had the support of our Brothers and Sisters here on the forums during our times of need, something that I will *always* be grateful for beyond words. If it were not for the generosity and goodwill of the people here, my children and I would not have had a Christmas. So I thank you, all- deeply and from the bottom of my heart. I am certain that Devious echoes my sentiments. We have both had a long road to walk to recovery, and will walk that road every day for the remainder of our lives; but we do so with the reminder that there are still those who are kind and gracious enough to help us upon our way- and we in return help those who need our assistance. Above all, we will always remember the Angels who watch over us, smiling gently and loving us still. Rest in Peace, Good and Gentle Ladies. We will always love you, and never forget.

Wow Brother, beautiful post.
Thanks. It's reaffirming knowing that you and Devious are there, keeping the faith, and love, alive. Keep on, and may you both (all) be blessed for it. |

My thoughts are with you both may you both keep on keeping on. Having met Devious in San Diago this year I discovered not just a generous hearted man but a friend. I am sure Lorena has a great part of brining best out of him. As I am sure Kimberley is bringing the best out of you.

When I said to an uncle of mine when my Mum died, "I'll get over it" he replied, "You won't get over it. You'll learn to live with it."
So true, I've found out. Ekuth and Devious, I feel for you. May you recall many happy time with your partners to encourage you along in life.
The presentation makes the magic.

I cried with you last year, and I still mourn your loss, but I also share your joy in moving ahead. Bless you both!

During this time of the year, I took the time to look at her
beloved Christmas decorations and assorted knick-knacks. I pondered the thought that went into the purchase and appropriation of each item. Time and Effort is what she spent for each one. Both Time and Effort certainly apply to my relationship with her, but they also apply to my mates here and abroad. Thanks for taking the Time and making the Effort to share your words of encouragement with a broken soul who is still trying to find his way. I'm in a better place now. Learning to manage, but never forgetting is correct indeed. Thanks Mario, Colin, Motley, Eric, and certainly Christophe. I love you guys! |
