Only someone who has walked the path you have and devoted the love, respect and loving care you did, can fully understand your great personal loss. Rest assured the last breath Margaret took on this earth was her first breath in Heaven. May God comfort you in your time of greatest need. He will, in His own time, grant you peace and comfort in the loss of your devoted wife. Keep the faith.
