Reading my first post on your account, @joanstewart, I am sorry to read about the loss of your husband. 50 years of life together is wonderful. He lived a full life. It is a very nice tribute you have written. Thank you for sharing it with us. When you are ready, I hope we will read more about how you are doing, in the not too distant future.
We had ridden the waves together through good and bad, life is never easy. Rob lived a full life, enjoyed what he did right to the end before snake bite. I will pop in with short visits for awhile, eventually settle down and start communicating more often.
