I miss her so very much each and every day. When she died, a big part of me died with her. I will miss her until my dying day, when I hope we will be together again.
Dear Paula,
Not only can you have hope to be together with Alley again, you can count on it!

Knowing in my heart, without any doubt, that we will reunite with those we love who have gone before us is what keeps me going. A binding love so strong and pure never breaks neither in this world nor the next. Alley was your special love just as Goliath was mine. The most wonderful gift each of them left us are the wonderful memories of the years we spent with them. This gift of love Alley left you is yours now and forever. Alley enriched your life and spirit in a way nothing else could ever begin to.
I know what you mean about feeling that a big part of you died when Alley passed away. I feel the same way. How could you not miss one who you loved so much and still do? I miss my Goliath more than I have ever missed anything in my life and think of him many many times over the course of the day. Though the agonizing grief has passed, I too will miss Goliath's physical presence just as you miss Alley. I don't believe that yearning will ever go away, and I never want it to. We were both blessed in experiencing such a love in our lives. Many others will never be so blessed.
May you feel the warmth of the sunshine Alley brought into your life and her memory be your most prized possesion. Life is so short while eternity is not.
May God bless you and keep you always in His tender love and care.
Hugs of love on this special 2nd Year Angelversary.
Hugs,
Beth
