Rest in peace John.

Grief is the price we pay for love.

My darling, darling Jeff. 70 years we promised but that was so cruelly cut short.

No more slicing and dicing, dancing and huggles in the kitchen, cryptic crossword clues and silly jokes reducing us both to tears. I will miss you for ever but am so grateful for our time together, and so proud to be your wife.

So much grief. So much love.

Your broken-hearted Corinne.
