Words of Love to Mr. Manchester from Mrs. Manchester:

The Moment That You Left Me....... my heart split in two. One side filled with memories, the other side died with you. I often lay awake at night when the world is fast asleep, and take a walk down memory lane with tears upon my cheek. ~ REMEMBERING~ you is easy, I do it everyday; but missing you is a heartache that never goes away. I hold you tightly within my heart and there you will remain. you see life has gone on without you, but it will never be the same.

Your Loving wife, Gloria
