I Will Always Love You
Stephen Howard Pitches
July 24, 1948 - October 7, 2011
Dude, I miss you everyday! ln many significant ways, I've never known anyone so perfect for me. But, God Knew . . . Caribbean trips "on the cheap, off-season with saved lunch money," and cruises in the 80s and 90s, surprise hot air balloon ride over Gwinnett Co. for our 1Oth Wedding Anniversary! San Francisco, LA, Chicago, New York, DC, NO . . . in the 90s.
Our volunteer work together for more than 30 years in the TV/web ministry and other ministries at First Presbyterian of Atlanta, and in our community. So many road trips! (My turn, driving the 28-foot RV through Manhattan during rush hour!) Visits with your parents for your birthdays and to see Grandaddy for his and my shared birthdays, and many more adventures! Our years of Saturday devotions that helped to keep us together, and you hung in there for our 28th Anniversary. Thank you, Babe. For me, that was not nearly enough time. But, God Knew.
It's been 10 years since you left, so suddenly. What's that like in heaven, in eternity - 10 mili-seconds? I talk to your spirit, everyday, yelling at you for leaving me, still missing the good that you brought into my life. And, you left me in Good Hands, in God's Hands.
Mom-Hazel and Sisters Ruth and Jean love and miss you, forever! Say "Hi" to Dad-Sid and family for us.
"Hey, hey, what can I say? I can just lie and say if's all okay. Oh-ho, what can I do?
Been going through Hell getting over you. But it don't hurt, it don't hurt [quite as badly like it used to. . .."- Billy Currington
Love,
Brenda
