Heartbreaking and beautiful - no surprise to love this: “You and me…we’re always...." the best. The sentiment behind those words is heavy and strong and lovely. Amazing - thanks so much for writing this.

Thank you very much. It's a lot of emotion to convey in a relatively few words...I'm glad it got across.

This was lovely and painful and real. I liked it very much.

Thank you so much.

I have no words. Beautiful. ♥

Aww...thank you.

This was touching. I was especially moved by the image of Jim seeking solace by curling up with Len's pillow on his side of the bed.

Those two together... always... is the perfect sentiment.

Very sad, but so lovely.

Oh, thank you.
