He passed on Dec.27th and I continue to try to keep my house, working three jobs and struggling very hard as 7 years and 11 months ago we were newly weds after both going through unwanted divorces. We had known each other as close freinds in our early 20's and 30's but had not seen each other since 1986. We married Jan19th 2001 and had a wonderful marraige so I guess thats why I miss his earthly presense so much. Sometimes I feel like I would just like for God to call me home to be with him, but I guess he's not finnished with me yet. My prayers are with you as we both try to find a way without our soul mates.

So many of us were deeply impacted by her words as a blogger and a mother. Even now I think about her comments about heaven "as if I am studying about a foreign place I am to visit" or something similar. It struck me, and I am very thankful for her candor about her dying and new life in heaven. I can imagine you miss her more now then ever, as is common the second year after a spousal death. My very best to you and Gary, my prayers as well.Imajacksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01183995361801055102noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30600487.post-87680673243503120192008-09-10T17:52:00.000-05:002008-09-10T17:52:00.000-05:00Thinking of you all today.TraciThinking of you all today.<BR/>Traci123https://www.blogger.com/profile/08381042563803828799noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30600487.post-67556200359044746962008-09-10T13:33:00.000-05:002008-09-10T13:33:00.000-05:00Praying for Brandon, Gary and the Martin family on...Praying for Brandon, Gary and the Martin family on this day...<BR/><BR/>May the peace that passes understanding be with you all....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30600487.post-29331727827547520602008-09-10T08:38:00.000-05:002008-09-10T08:38:00.000-05:00Keeping your family in my thoughts and prayers tod...Keeping your family in my thoughts and prayers today.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30600487.post-15055331390112219462008-07-25T01:32:00.000-05:002008-07-25T01:32:00.000-05:00The Lord brought you to mind today.

I'm the one who tried to commit suicide twice, once on the day Amy died. I asked myself a million times why she died and I didn't, when she wanted to live and I didn't. <BR/><BR/>I'm feeling much better now and have moved to Christian counseling which has helped a lot. I wish my husband were as loving and supportive as you are. You are a wonderful man and Amy is so lucky to have you...to have someone love her so unconditionally had to be such as blessing for her.<BR/><BR/>I know I am noone special, but Amy's story inspired me a lot and gave me will and hope that life is precious and should be treasured. I thank you for keeping her blog up because sometimes when I am feeling like I might go off the edge again, I can read Amy's words and God reminds me that I never battle alone.<BR/><BR/>Thank you,<BR/>KatieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30600487.post-89619014035293457212008-07-03T10:50:00.000-05:002008-07-03T10:50:00.000-05:00I too check this blog once in a while to see if th...I too check this blog once in a while to see if there are any updates on how you and Gary are doing.

I've been there, and the missing her gets sweeter and less sorrowful over time. It's hard for other people to understand, as they often equate your loss to a divorce. But your loss actually is a gain in some ways. If the Lord should ever bring about a new spouse, you will always love both women. It's as if Amy's passing created MORE ability to love in your future life. Love for Gary, Amy's family, your own family and so on. It seems counterintuitive, but it's God's good pleasure to make beauty from ashes.Imajacksonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01183995361801055102noreply@blogger.com
