On Friday, December 31, 2010, You left me. You, my very best friend. my lover, my companion, my dear, wonderful husband. I know you as Bill but to your loving grandchildren...You were better known as "Poppy"...Bill, you are and always will be the heart of my heart. You are my EVERYTHING!! Your leaving was so sudden, you kissed me good-bye in the morning and by aprox. 2:00 pm in the afternoon, you left me and passed on from this world to the next. I know this was not by your choice. I had the best (25)years in my life with you and so did most eveyone that knew you for a day or a lifetime. My heart is broken into little pieces and it actually hurts. My wonderful Bill, you loved me so much and I knew it! Not only by the "I love you's" you said to me several times a day but by your actions. I'm sorry for those that never got to meet you, my love...because you were a giver, a helper, a caretaker, a friend and much, much more and asked nothing in return...you did eveyrthing in the name of love...Although hard for you to always express how you felt, your actions prevailed! Bill, I love you more than the breathe in my body and the clouds in the sky. We will miss you and never forget you...You were like a father to your 8yr. old, grandson, Brendan who lives with us. He too, is now lost without his "Poppy" as I know all the rest of us are.... As for me, I just want to hold you one more time, kiss you once more, I am completely empty and lost without you. Please help us, watch over us and continue to care for us and baby, you now, RIP...We will always love you, our sweet Bill...XO Your Loving Wife, Fran and family.xoxoxo
PS You were the very best son-in-law to my Mom...She loves you so much and she knows how much you love her.She has said to many that you were not only her son, but her best friend...She already misses your visits so much.
