Good Morning Donald My Love,
It's 3;30 am on Sat. morning the 15th of Dec. I couldn't sleep I miss you so very very much. 3 more days and it's our 31st anniversary.
Any time is a real hard time without you. But this time of year
is even worse. Your Birthday Nov.1st, then Thanksgiving, then our anniversary Dec.18th, then Christmas and New Years. Sometimes I go out just to look at the Christmas things but it's No good without you there and every one is looking for things for their LOVE ONE. It hurts so very bad.
I keep telling myself it will get easier but I sure don't know when.
You have been what my whole life has been about for the past 32 years since Oct. 14th 1975 when we first moved in together.
I'm trying real hard to find what God wants me to do with my life until he takes me Home to be with
Him and you forever. But it's so hard.
When you died a big part of me died with you. You had become part of me. I just Thank God that we became closer and closer as the years went on. We WILL be together again Forever when GOD decides it's that time. Stay with me in spirit. Many times I can feel you with me.
I'll LOVE you forever no one can ever take your place. I pray for you many times daily and will see you in time. When God decides it's that time.
LOVE FOREVER & EVER' YOUR WIFE DIANE##imported-begin##Diane Shade##imported-end##

****HAPPY BIRTHDAY****
My Darling Donald,
Nov. 01, 2007. Today is your Birthday and I miss you as much or more today as I did last year at this time.
I don't write much here any more I mainly talk to you at the cemetery or at home.
I know your spirit is with me at all
times. No matter where I am.
Either as my Guardian Angel, or just as your spirit I'm not quite sure which.
As you know on September 22,2007 I
rededicated my life to Christ Jesus
and will live for him and where ever
he leads me until he takes me home
and you and I will be together forever.
Our life here on earth is like one drop of water in the ocean. compared
to eternity.
I miss you so very very much my Love
nothing will ever change that but I
do thank God daily for taking you
when he did so you didn't have to go
through all of the hospital things
that were in the near future.
I miss you so much but it is better
than the alternitive.
I will be talking to your picture and kissing it good night shortly.
My thoughts and prayers, are with
you always until we are together again forever.
Your Loving Wife Forever, Diane.##imported-begin##Diane Shade##imported-end##

Hi My Wounderful Husband and Best Friend Ever!! ***DONALD***
Today is May 1st. It's been 8 months since you left this earth to
be with God. I feel often that your spirit is still with me trying to help me cope with my loneliness of missing you. I have wounderful memories but I will miss you forever until we are together again for eternity.
Our marker will be there on May 8th. Then they will let me know when it is put in place.
I'll feel much better when that is done. Then I can leave this earth at any time and We'll be together in our Vette on our way to Heaven where we will be together Forever.
I know when I am at the cemetery you are there with me but I also know that when I leave you leave with me and are with me always in spirit. No matter where I am.
I miss you so very very much my Love. My heart is yours forever.
Thank you for staying with me as long as you did I know you were suffering so much. I Thank God for the wounderful years we had together. And that he took you home before you had to have the blood transfusions and the dyalisis treatments.
Just wait for me I will be with you when God decides it's the right time.
All my Love Forever,Your Wife Diane##imported-begin##Diane Shade##imported-end##

My Dearest, *** HUSBAND DON ***
Today is February 01, 2007.
OUR marker for OUR grave sight is allmost done. I'll be glad when I finally get it in place. Then I will be ready to join you. When ever God is ready for us to be together again. "FOREVER"
You will like it I'm sure. It has the memories of our life together. Hopefully it will take us to the better place together forever. I miss you so very much my Love . I keep being told it gets easier but when does that happen?
I miss you as much and even much more today as I did the day you left and I don't think anything will ever change that.
The Superbowl is Sunday. It just won't be right without you here to see it with me. Maybe you will be here. Sometimes I feel your spirit with me. Hopefully that will be one of the days.
I MISS YOU HONEY WITH ALL MY HEART. I will be out to the cemetary tomorrow.
I's really hard with Valentines Day coming up and everyone with their sweethearts. I go into a store and there are all the thing and people getting thing for their lover. We had and I have many many wounderful memories together. At least nothing or no one can erase the "BEAUTIFUL MEMORIES" that I do have.
I'm going to bring you Beautiful Red Roses on that day. *****HAPPY VALENTINES DAY*****
I do and will **LOVE YOU FOREVER**
**YOUR LOVING WIFE, DIANE**##imported-begin##Diane M. Shade##imported-end##

Good Morning my "SUNNY"
I just wrote you a long letter then my comp. froze up again and I lost it all.
It is 6;00 AM. It was exactly 13 weeks ago. Or exactly 3 months ago
on Wednesday morn. at 6;00 am that you went to sleep for the last time in our home. Then you went home to be with GOD. I'm hoping he is letting you stay with me until he decides to take me too. So we can be together for all time.
In a way it seems like just a short time age that you left and yet it seems like you've been gone a long long time. I am so very very lonley for you!
There is such a deep deep void in my life and in my heart it will never ever be filled. Until we are together again.
I thought maybe if I went to a couple of Christmas stores yesterday and looked around it might help but it didn't. Every one is looking for things for the one they LOVE and the ONE I LOVE is no longer here. There's nothing I want to look at.
So I went out to the cemetary and talked to you there as I usually do
several time a week. I brought out the little Santa & Raindeer that we had in Fairbanks and put in on your grave. It's the last time they will be used!
Our 30th anniversay is in 12 days.
I wanted to have "OUR Marker" made by then or by Christmas anyway. But it looks like we wont get it until after the 1st of the year.
But that's OK because they are doing a beautiful job on it and you will really like it I'm sure.
I made a couple of pictures of you and they were on the floor by the TV ShyLyn just laid in front of them and stared at them for over 3 hours. She and Ming Toy still don't know where there Daddy went.They still look for you whenever I come home. I do too I keep waiting for you to come in behind me.
Your BRO & BROET [Jerry & Darlene] really miss you too Honey. I'm going to so what I talked to you about. I'm sure that is what you would like me to do. Yes?? YES !!!!
I'm going to come out to the cemetary a little later today. I think I'll try to sleep for a couple of hours first. I didn't sleep last night it was a bad night for me. I didn't feel your presents with me I feel so alone.
I LOVE you my Darling and God willing after I get the marker when ever he is ready to come get me I'm ready to be with you forever.
MY LOVE IS WITH YOU ALWAYS.
YOUR LONELY LOVING WIFE FOREVER. DIANE##imported-begin##Diane M. Shade##imported-end##
