There are good days and not so good days. I know I’m not telling you anything new. We were married 51 years when she died. Our anniversary is January 1. Our wonderful granddaughter, husband and her 2 children celebrated that day eating in her favorite restaurant. It was good because we have good memories and funny stories.

It is good that you have your daughter.
