My husband Charlie you are gone from my sight, but not from my heart. I stood by you from the beginning of our lives together now to the end as we both vowed and said “until death do us part”. As I sit by the bed holding your hand, playing your favorite song “Hello it’s Me” and trying to hold back my tears I realize you at peace. As I watch you take your last breath I Thank God we made peace with each other. Gone from my sight, but not my heart. Love you Charlie Rattler Sr.
