    Re: Me and my wife Margareth in better times

    So sorry to hear of your wifes illness. One of the wonderful things we have are our memories of the good times and they are especially meaningful when we have gorgeous images like this to reinforce them.
    Don't forget about the Gallery. Are your photos there??

    Re: Me and my wife Margareth in better times

    Dear Willem,

    What a beautiful photo of you and your wife, so expressive of the love you share with one another. Among all the beautiful images you've shared with us, this is the best because it's personal. Thank you for sharing with us.

    I'm so sorry to hear that your wife is sick, but I'm glad you came here to share this with your friends at PR. I know you haven't been well for a long time, either, Willem. How are you doing? I will pray for you and your lovely wife in a special way.

    You've been coming here on and off for years, and I miss your beautiful b&w images when you're not around. It's good to have you back, and you can be sure you and your wife will be in our thoughts and prayers.

    Liz

    The photo does capture your love for one another. My prayers are with you and your wife. Thankfully, the pain in this life will one day end, but the love will last for eternity.

    Willem, I am so sorry for your loss. God be with you and give you strength and courage during this time. Your wife will always remain in your heart. My first husband passed away in 1999 and I found a quote that meant a lot to me and I share it with you now:

    "It is in the darkest hour that our soul is replenished and given strength to continue and endure." Heart Warrior Chosa.

    God bless you and comfort you, Nora.
