It has been a long 2 1/2 years. I would like to say it was all smooth sailing, but it wasn't. Dealing with death is never easy for anyone involved. I will say this for Sherman, he handled it with more grace and acceptance than I thought it was possible for one human to muster. I hope I can do as well when my time comes. He set the bar pretty high and I am just not sure I can reach it.
I had been a widow 7 years when I met Sherman. Following that I will be 78 years old before I date again. Wonder how that is going to work? If you look carefully at the porch trim on the top you will notice that one of the white pieces is missing. It was not there when I met him and we always meant to finish that, but never quite got around to it. Kind of like life, isn't it? There is always one more thing that needs done!
Miss you Sherman.
