Another year is over Darling Sheila. It's five years today since you left me and things are just as hard as ever. It sometimes frightens me because I don't know when this pain is going to end. Will it ever? The only thing that makes me feel better is that it's not you that's going through this devastation. I wouldn't wish it on anyone let alone you. It's unbearable sometimes. If I could just see you for five minutes to hug you and tell you I'm sorry and that I miss you - I'd give anything to see you. "Oh for the touch on your vanished hand and the sound of your voice which is still." that expresses it word for word how I feel. All my love darling Sheila now and forever.

I am I and you are you, whatever we were to each other that we still are. Speak to me in the easy way which you always used. Why should I be out of mind because I am out of sight? Life means all that it ever meant, it is the same as it ever was.

Thank you for setting up this memorial to Sheila Simpson. We hope that you find it a positive experience developing the site and that it becomes a place of comfort and inspiration for you to visit whenever you want or need to.
