Although this will be one of the happiest days in our lives, Howard and I will be unable to share it with the loved ones we have lost.
My father passed away in 1995. Not a day goes by that there isn't something that reminds me of him and throughout the wedding planning process, I have truly missed him more than ever. To say he and Howard would have gotten along would be an understatement. Although he will not be there in person, I know he will be there in spirit and will be watching over his little girl as she begins a new part of her life.
Jeanette was just as excited, if not more, as we were about our engagement and planning our wedding. Howard was Jeanette's only nephew and was extremely close to her. She had welcomed me with open arms from the moment we started dating. We know she will be watching over us with her big red glasses on our special day.
