My heart is broken into a million pieces with the passing away of My Sheriff, just a little over a month ago. I've avoided posting this because the tears just won't stop. He was the most amazing, loving, caring man I've ever known. We loved each other very much over the years. We entered into a long distance relationship the past four years. We talked for hours on the phone, many times throughout an entire night. It wasn't unusual for my phone to ring at midnight and we would watch old TV shows together until 7am. He would call me at 3am, singing the Petticoat Junction theme song. He used to sing to me many times over the phone. We laughed together, cried together, joked around...out wit and sense of humor was a match like no other. I miss his calls, I miss his voice and his laugh. With all the conversations we've had, I never heard him say anything negative about anyone. Sure, he didn't always agree with some things people would say or do, but he never criticized them about it or put them down for it. He always knew I don't go to funerals, so I know he would understand my not being at his. But, his sister did ask if there was any song I wanted to dedicate to him to be played during his service. I didn't even have to think twice. I told her to please have Dionne Warwick's 'Deja Vu' played. That was the song that I swear was written for Larry and me. I've sent it to him many times to listen to. I told him...listen to these words...that's us! I still cry...probably always will. I miss him and love him so much.
