    How sweet, after this many years you wouldn't know what to do without each other.

    My husband is deceased but he never questioned what I bought or why, it was our money not his, whether I worked or not! He was a true gem and I miss him everyday. Trust me if all husbands were as patient with their wives (not other people) there wouldn't be divorces.
