I need to remember a very special man here tonight. We had dreams and schemes and plans for the future. We had been married for almost 19 years and had been very happy - not always perfect, but contented and together. He was supposed to be so much a part of all this - the quilting, the designing and the future. So - this is for John Barrett - you gave me a name and a life and you left this life too soon. There are so many people in the world that knew you and miss you, the children that you have influenced, the work that you did and the life you gave me.
RIP John Matthew Barrett. 5/9/51 - 4/18/2009. Aren't they all gone too soon?
So never take love for granted - it's a blessing and a joy and it may not last as long as you think.
