If you have been, or are a widow or widower, what is it about your late spouse that you miss the most?

With my late wife, I miss:
1) Her sweet voice
2) Her flowery, illuminated handwriting and doodles
3) Her love of the Lord and her caring, generous heart that was always reaching out to others

I am so sorry for your loss. I’ve lost friends, and and ex-boyfriend recently passed away. Those deaths were hard enough. I don’t want to think about losing my spouse. I’d miss him so much, miss the way he makes me laugh and all the loving things he does, the good man he is. It would be really hard. I know me though. I’d mourn, grieve and move on, but a piece of my heart would always belong to him, and I’d think about him and miss him every day.

@ChampagneOnIce Thanks. I think that most of us move on in one way or other... and in our own timing. And, there does seem to be a bit of our heart that is left behind... or maybe just encapsulated in the special memories... 🙂

@ms20182878 You never "get over it," you just learn how to live with it.
