Goodbye, Byron
A very sad day. My dear friend Nona's husband Byron passed away today. I just found out when I got home from work. He passed away peacefully with his family around him. But, he's gone. He was such a sweet, kind and fun man. The past few years have been very difficult on him and he has been living in a nursing home (which just about killed Nona). I talked to Nona tonight and she says she has no reason to go on. I told her she has family and friends who need her, but she said it's just not the same. She doesn't even want to be in their house. I'm so sad for her. I can only imagine how deep a love like theirs goes. They have been married for over 50 years. Side by side through everything in life. And now the love of her life is not on this earth any more. I can understand, but selfishly I don't want to lose her. Rest in peace, Byron. You deserve the rest and I know God will take care of you!
