Having faith and believing the Lord has once again blessed me as Joe and I welcome you and thank you for sharing this page of our life. The Lord sent Joe into my life and we have started a life together with love and hope for many days till we too will be called home. My precious memories will always be with me.I thank God for a chance to start a new life with someone who loves me and who like me has so much love to share. New precious memories are just begining as we start our journey in life together. Joe was a good friend through the last 4 years of trials I went through. We met in person in Feb.2005 and knew we wanted to share the rest of our lives together. In March Joe suffered a heart attack and had open heart surgery. We knew then what time we had left here on earth we wanted to be together and share our new love no matter how short or long the time will be. Each day we make a new memory as we go about our days together. We thank God for bringing us together.

LEON'S STORY 1933-2003 MEMORIES WILL FOREVER BE IN MY HEART

PLEASE LEAVE YOUR HEART PRINTS FOR ME

BEFORE I GO When my life has reached it's very end, And I take that final breath, I want to know I've left behind, Some "good" before my death. I hope that in my final hour, In all honesty I can say, That somewhere in my lifetime, I have brightened someone's day. That maybe I have brought a smile To someone else's face, And made one moment a little sweeter, While they dwelled here in this place. Lord, please be my reminder And whisper softly in my ear... To be a "giver", not a "taker", In the years I have left here. Give to me the strength I need, Open up my mind and my soul. That I might show sincere compassion, And love to others before I go. For if not a heart be touched by me, And not a smile was left behind... Then the life that I am blessed with, Will have been a waste of time. With all my heart, I truly hope, To leave something here on earth. That touched another, made them smile And gave to my life ... worth. ~ author unknown ~ This is so close to my personal thoughts I just wanted to share,Marlene
