my wife said maybe I should post here and tell you how much your words touched her Dia. Very well written tribute to Bart. He sounds like a great guy and someone I would have liked to have known. I myself lost my mother quite a long time ago, and my wife lost her mother 3 years ago and she is still not really over it.
Plus to bring it all home for me, my wife just got out of the hospital for congestive heart failure. She was in ICU for 3 days and I don't know how I would live without her if something happened. She's at home recuperating now and hopefully everything will be alright. Although she bitches about all the prescriptions she has to take now, but I take it as a good sign if she's complaining. Anyway, take care Dia. Wishing you well.

Your loss touches me now just as it did the first night I read about it, last year. Then, I was only starting to realize how much I love the man in my life, luckily he knows it now too. You just can't hold back tears when hearing of things like this, of your loss. Even from the beginning you didn't really see it, but your strength was, and remains absolutely incredible. I don't think I could function if I were in your position. Even the fact that it's really late and I haven't heard from my boyfriend yet(as I was supposed to, by now), is really starting to worry me. Especially after hearing of your loss again.
I hope that everyone knows how important it is to let the ones you love know how much they really mean to you.
Dia, you are an amazing woman. Your strength and spirit is wonderful. The photos you have put together really do show how great a man Bart was. And still is, as he lives on in others. And there is love for sure in the photo of the two of you together.
My thoughts and prayers are continuously with you. You are an inspiration.
*hugs*
