Works From the Attic by Linda

He still makes me laugh, we still enjoy spending time together and we still know how important it is to let each other have some time to do the things we each enjoy as well. He still loves to fish, I am still an artist specializing in painted items and jewelry. We both enjoy boating.

May you never know the emptiness and sadness of losing a child. ~Linda
