Today would have been our 41st wedding anniversary. Forty-one years ago, God blessed my life with the most beautiful gift—my Debbie. While heaven celebrates with you today, my heart still wishes I could hold your hand one more time, hear your laughter, and tell you face to face just how much I love you. Not a day goes by that I don't think of you. I miss your smile, your kindness, your strength, and the way you made every ordinary moment feel extraordinary. You walked through so many difficult seasons with incredible courage, and your faith continues to inspire me even now. Although there is an empty place beside me, there is also a lifetime of memories that no one can ever take away. I carry your love with me every day, and I see pieces of you in our children and grandchildren. Your legacy lives on in each of them. Happy Anniversary, my beautiful bride. I imagine you celebrating in the presence of our Savior, completely healed, completely whole, and filled with a joy beyond anything we can imagine here on earth. One day, by God's grace, we'll celebrate together again. Until then, I'll keep loving you, missing you, honoring your memory, and doing my best to live a life that would make you smile. I love you forever, Debbie. Happy 41st Anniversary in Heaven, my sweetheart. ❤️ Forever your husband, Mark
