At 6:45 AM, it has been three years since Sue passed. Several friends and family sent thoughts, including Robin & Bob, Donna & Bob, Colleen & Mark, and Michele & Franklyn. Colleen posted on Facebook a lovely tribute.
We thought this a lovely tribute!
I must say I did OK because I knew how she felt about going on in life with all the ailments and pain. Mary was, as expected, very caring and watched me carefully all day.
We went to the Performing Arts Center in Cerritos for a Tribute To Glenn Miller with the Tex Benecke Band, but on the way there, we did a “Del Taco run.” Yep, another burrito bites the dust. This time I brought my knife, and I witnessed Mary cutting the burrito in “half.” I got the bigger half.
We arrived just in time for Ed Roberts to give us Vicky’s tickets. It was an excellent show, and there was sure a sea of grey hair in the audience. We met with George & Beverly for a few minutes at halftime.
Our seats were in the center of the fourth row; they were perfect!
We had great seats courtesy of Vicky, who was out of town and could not make the performance.
Did I say good seats?
Mary kept looking at me during the performance to make sure I was OK, and I appreciated her putting her arms around me several times as the music played on. It’s a beautiful feeling to be loved!
The statues were still there playing their music.
After the show, we decided to “go to the club” and have dinner. Our waitress was Terri Little, who I have known for fifteen years. I told her about Sue, and she was aware. She met Mary, and I sent her several links to the website where she could see our wedding, the house, and the garden. She works evenings, and we usually go after a doctor’s appointment between noon and late afternoon.
We managed to get home without stopping at Del Taco, which was almost a miracle. I was beaten, and I fell asleep almost instantly. Mary watched a movie and visited the Sandman at about 11:00 PM.
