    I made this for my cousin Sherry and her new husband Bruce. The family was so happy for Sherry....she devoted her life to her first husband who was very sick with diabeties and a bad heart. He lost his battle a few years ago to a massive heart attack. They never had any kids and she was quite lonely dispite a huge family support system. Within a year she announced she was ready to put herself "out there" again. Within a few months she met Bruce and they hit it off from the start. Bruce has two sons from his first marriage and Sherry quickly became someone they highly looked up too. With the next year they got married. Everyone was so happy for her and she seemed more happy than she had been in a long time. And the most ironic thing is that Bruce is a cardioligist. To loose her first love to a heart attack and then find love again with a cardiologist we (the family) felt it was her first husband's way of saying it's OK, I'm happy for you.
