The worse news possible!

This is the absolutely the hardest and worse thing I have ever had to do. Jennifer passed away around 10:30 this morning.


While I am absolutely devastated, I am also comforted by the fact that her pain and suffering is over and that she went quickly. The cancer just was eating her up.


She was suffering and the Chemo was only going to make it worse. She absolutely did not deserve that. She was too good of a person and my best friend. We had our moments, but we always had each other's backs and full devotion.


We had a discussion this morning about the path forward. I had told her that if/when it just got too much for her, that she absolutely had my blessing to go, that I absolutely loved her and was forever thankful to be her spouse. For the first damn time in our relationship, she fricking listened to me.


I don't know when the arrangements will be I have to meet with the mortuary tomorrow afternoon and work thru all of that and will communicate that here when I get it arranged. Per her wishes, she will be cremated, and her ashes will be buried in one of her favorite purses in Butte near her parents.


We thank all of you for the prayers, well wishes and good vibes, but I guess her parents and brother Dave decided that they needed her up in heaven with them.


I also know that many of you are concerned about me. I am fine at this point in time, and just want time by myself today to try and come to grips with her passing. I know I will need support and encouragement in the near future and appreciate all of the offers for that and will be taking you up on that, just not today.

Joe, I am very sorry to hear this news. I know you are heartbroken to lose your best friend. I have so many fond memories of Jennifer while we were working together in Midland and Houston. May God help you find comfort and peace in the days, weeks and years ahead.
