IN LOVING MEMORY


On the 24th June my darling beloved husband Ernie passed away in my arms.


I have never felt such pain in my life, and at the moment cannot focus on anything except just getting by each day. I have lost my zest for life and art, and just hope that this ache in my heart will go away, so that i can at least face the future without him.


Here is the last photo of Ernie taken at his 65th Birthday party, on the 22nd May 2009, which he celebrated along with our Grandson Bobby, who was 13 years old that same day.


GOD BLESS YOU ERNIE, and I hope that we will meet again one day my precious.
