Good morning, Mike,
Life goes on even after tossing some nasty curve balls. The problem often is that we don't want it to. We want it to stop and at the very least wait until we catch up. Losing a spouse is one of those moments.
In this time of sorrow, know that you are loved and care for and about. Some who care are strangers to you, but tied to you nebulously via this thing we call the Internet. Were you closer we would gather around to embrace, to hold, to shake you hand, in some way to touch you. Sit back, close your eyes, and feel the touch we send your way.
As your life returns to some order, we will still be here. We will still care. While life will indeed continue on, know that our condolences are given, our friendship remains, and your loving wife is a very real part of who you are. I'll bet she was a real gem!
Consider yourself and your family prayed for, and the life of your Norma will also be raised up in thankful prayer for the life you had together.
