Murray,

You are now free of the pain and suffering of this terrible sickness and you have begun another journey.

When I met you, you brought joy and happiness in my life, you are an amazing partner and friend that always treated me with love and respect.

I was so happy to have found such a wonderful, considerate person like you.

The beautiful memories of us, on our long bike rides and walks on Saturday mornings, dancing with the music full blast and your arms that held me tight at night, will keep me going, until we meet again.

All your wishes have been honoured and respected, as you wanted them to be.

I love you so much and I will miss you every day. You will always be in my heart.

Love,

Suzanne

OXOX
