Exactly 7 months after I met Jon I found him dead at his house. I had waited all my life for him. I had been in a bad marriage for 22 yerars and thought I would never find a real love in my life. At 46 years of age I met Jon quite by accident . He was my world . I guess I am so devastated because all my life I had looked for a real love that I had never known.
He was a wonderful man who made my whole life so different.
Our song was Bette Midlers Wing beneath My wings . When I found him that Friday night it was playing on the Cd player . They said he had been dead a long time . HE had it on repeat .
I was out of town at a conference for work and I had a bad feeling all day as I hadnt heard from him and he called me several times a day every day. It was a feeling that I will remember all my life .
I hope to someday find this kind of love again but am so afraid it will never happen again as it took me all those years to find him . I also dont know when I will be able to stop crying every time I see something that reminds me of him..
Thanks for listening ...
