Happy Birthday Myrle

Today is Steve's mother's Birthday.  She would have been 68 years old today.  She left this mortal life when she was only 45 years old.  I cannot even fathom that.  My husband is 46.  I can't even think about what the rest of my life would be like without him here.  

In 1990, when she passed away, I was just beginning my Junior year of High School in Dallas Texas.  I was living a happy and carefree life and was completely oblivious to the fact that just a few states away, in St. Louis Missouri, my future husband was being devastated and my future life, and the lives of my children, were being forever changed.

Even though I  never met Myrle in this life, I know we were friends before we came to earth.  I know we will have a very happy reunion someday.  There are so many times I look into my daughters eyes and see a part of her alive in them.  She lived a short 45 years on this earth, but her beautiful legacy lives on.

Here is the Birthday video I made to celebrate this special day:
