As with the card celebrating what would have been our 29th anniversary, I give to you this one celebrating your birthday. And being the well-trained husband that I am, I'll not broadcast your age.
Whether it be by cosmic accident or divine grace, we found each other. From the moment we met, a beautiful friendship evolved. And from that friendship came even more.

Within months, I had no dream, no goal that didn't include you. We committed ourselves to each other completely, till death do us part. We became one, two halves of a whole, a partnership in every sense of the word.

I then experienced for almost twenty-nine years the bliss of loving the perfect-for-me wife. We gave each other all we had and did so without reservation. We loved. We cherished. We thrived.

Our reward came in the form of a wondrous marriage. We were as inseparable as wet and water. Only death had the power to sever our bond.
It's your birthday, Myra, but every birthday you had was a gift to me.
Aw, this is such a sweet and touching gesture. I have no doubt that Myra somehow knows about it and appreciates it! Your love for her shines so much through just this card alone...
ReplyDeleteJeff, I feel like we are privileged to know Myra through your posts. I wish you and your special family much peace this Christmas.
ReplyDeleteThis is truly beautiful. More so, because I have no doubt at all that she, and you, knew how much you were loved. Hugs.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday to Myra! She was a lucky woman to have a husband like you, as you were a lucky man to have her for a wife. You two will be connected for eternity.
ReplyDelete*hug*
So touching and loving. Myra's lucky to have spent her life with you Jeff, a very loving husband.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday to Myra. That was just beautiful, Jeff.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday, Myra.
ReplyDeleteIt's good to see you, Jeff. Hope you're staying afloat.
That is so moving, I think I'm going to cry. Happy birthday, Myra.
ReplyDeleteI am convinced she sees all the things you do for her and she feels all the love you send her way. Above all, I am sure you wll meet again.
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday, Myra.
Happy Birthday Myra. You were lucky in your marriage. I hope your Christmas will be joyful and full of happy memories.
ReplyDeleteA "Happy Birthday" from me to her, in God's Kingdom, as well.
ReplyDeleteHave a great day, Mr. Hargett.
Happy Birth Day Myra :D
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday to Myra, and like someone said above, I feel honored to be allowed to glimpse into this relationship you two had together. The bond you share is inspiring, and I can't believe how raw and powerful this is. Thank-you, for sharing your romance with the world.
ReplyDeleteJust sweet. Hugs Jeff.
ReplyDeleteYou were lucky to have had such a wonderful wife; she was lucky to have had such a wonderful husband.
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Myra. And to Jeff, wishing you all the strength and peace for this time in your life.
ReplyDeleteDear Jeff,
ReplyDeleteBless you and your birthday wishes for your beloved. She lives on in your heart and soul. A gift of love for all to see.
In kindness and peace,

Beautiful! Happy Birthday to Myra - I know she'll be smiling down. ;)
ReplyDeletewow!.. man you are really nice husband, Please don't forget to wish Myra Ma'am on behalf. It is really hard to make feel someone as a special. Life gives you very little chance to do this.
ReplyDeleteSuch beautiful words. How blessed you both were. Sending a virtual hug.
ReplyDeleteI disagree. I don't think death severed your bond at all and I don't believe anything will.
ReplyDeleteThis is really beautiful. I can't imagine how painful it is for you to be without her. Love is fragile and fleeting, and we must treasure when we find it and hold onto it as long as we're allowed.
