To my beautiful love in body and soul: kind, thoughtful, funny and so brave, and adored by those that crossed your path.  Our lives have been enriched by you and now are emptier without you being here talk with, laugh with and just simply be with.  Life dealt you some unfortunate cards but you always endeavored to try to stay strong and smiling and always put others before yourself. 

I’m so glad of the many things we have shared together and will cherish these always.  Your inspiration encouraged me to do the many crazy things I had only dreamed of, never believing I’d find someone as crazy as me that would want to share such dreams, and we shared them together, didn’t we just? 

Thank you for all this and so much more, thank you for giving me our 15 years together and thank you for our love.
