It’s hard to feel grateful in the middle of what has been a horrific year for so many.
But several weeks ago, after submitting the final payment on my husband’s funeral bill from 16 years ago, I felt overwhelmed with gratitude that I felt I had to put into words.
I lost my husband Eric very tragically when he took his own life in August of 2004. He was my heart and my soul. He was the easy-going, help-everybody-with-their-homework kind of guy to our daughters, Hannah and Emily, while I was, admittedly, the disciplinarian. He was my best friend.
