I Take Thee, Angela

The poems contained in this work were the result of an outpouring of emotions and feelings that occurred over the two and one-half years of suffering my wife, Angela, endured during her struggle with pancreatic cancer.
So deep and so strong was the love we shared that it was our sustenance during a period when nothing seemed to matter except to overcome the monster that had become such an all-consuming part of our lives.
The lesson I carry away from this experience is to not take for granted the happiness that can be enjoyed during the time that God has given us all to share with one another.
We should all cherish the fact that we are together and love and respect our relationship to the fullest. No one knows what tomorrow may bring.
