Dear Rob,

You would be turning 65 today.

Your Medicare eligible birthday.

You got a piece of mail last week

advising you that you should enroll in a Medicare Advantage plan.

Boy, those marketing folks are still trying hard!

You hardly ever get mail anymore.

In the first year or so, it would make me cry when you'd get mail.

But, with this one, it just made me smile.

Because I knew that you would have loved reaching

this milestone birthday and, hopefully, getting to retire.

But also because I knew you sure don't need that Medicare Advantage plan.

You have the best health plan ever in Heaven!

Earlier this year, someone sent me some photos of

you and me 

that I had never seen before.

That was nice. 

I've seen all of my photos of you

so seeing those "new" ones was almost like seeing you again.

I am so thankful for all of your birthdays

that I was able to share with you.

Your children and I still miss you.

And we will always remember.

Love,

Your Janna

I'm posting lots of photos so the kids and I can all smile at the memories.

Hope they make you smile, too!

I will also post links to what I've written before on Rob's birthdays

in case you would like to read them or see more photos.
