There through good and bad

-

Dear June

I lost my wife of 43 years last August.

I go to her grave every day and lay fresh flowers every week. Do you think she knows I am there?

The loss of your wife, with whom you spent so many years, is life-changing, but life continues on after physical death. When the physical body deteriorat­es and dies, the spirit housed within it leaves the body behind but continues on in spirit.

The character and essence of who they were when they lived physical lives does not change and the bonds of love that were built up between those they loved over many years will never dissipate.

She will continue to walk unseen by your side each day to support you and will draw closer during your darkest days of grief.

You were together for a lifetime and partnershi­ps such as yours do not come to an end after one physical life ends. When you find yourself feeling alone and begin to doubt whether she is close, stop and think for a moment.

If the tables were turned and you had passed over to spirit side before her, would you move on and leave her behind?

Of course you wouldn’t. You would remain close by her side like you always did, on the good days and the bad.

So the answer to your question is yes, she knows you are there.

She accompanie­s you each and every day.
