As her husband was facing death, he begged her to promise him that she would be open to loving someone else and having someone else love love her. Although she was only 51, that felt unthinkable to her at the time.
She had been widowed 16 years when she met someone.The man she was marrying had lost his wife only a year earlier.
The ceremony was tender with openness about their previous loves and losses. They each knew their spouses wanted them to be together.
Pulling out of the church parking lot, the pastor noticed the license plate on the car she followed to the stop sign. Three letters, 3 numbers.
The 3 letters on the license plate spelled out the bride’s late husband’s name.
