Bob Posted November 21, 2012 Report Posted November 21, 2012 What do you say about a year where you lose the most important thing in your life and then become a millionaire? My darling, the light of my life, lost her battle to Pneumonia and Hodgkins lymphoma on August 2nd. Last time I was fishing was with her mid June and I haven't felt much like fishing or anything else since she was hospitalised. Exactly 3 months to the day after she died, I won a million dollars on the lotto max. Damn, I wish she was still here to enjoy it with me.

quickme Posted November 21, 2012 Report Posted November 21, 2012 my condolances. Money is not as important without someone you love to share it with you.
Gregoire Posted November 21, 2012 Report Posted November 21, 2012 I can't imagine the pain you are going through.
Joey Posted November 21, 2012 Report Posted November 21, 2012 My heartfelt condolances Bob, very sorry to hear this. I hope you can somehow enjoy the money you won, although I doubt that is possible right now. Keep it safe and look forward to enjoying it in the future when you move forward with your life a bit.
crappieperchhunter Posted November 21, 2012 Report Posted November 21, 2012 (edited) Sorry to hear the news of your wives passing Bob. It sounds like you and your lady shared something special. I see far too many people stuck in a train wreck of a marriage. So sad to see people wasting there lives like that. Get through your grief in your own time, hold your head high and count yourself lucky because of what you two shared. As far as the money goes, congrats on that. The book of your life has began a new chapter and you are the writer. Pick the happiest ending you can. Edited November 21, 2012 by crappieperchhunter

Bob Posted November 22, 2012 Author Report Posted November 22, 2012 Thank you all for feeling for me. She was a very special person, loved by almost anyone who knew her. We had twenty two good years together and I wish I could have a bunch more.
fishindevil Posted November 22, 2012 Report Posted November 22, 2012 sorry to hear the sad news bob !! and hopefully with time you will feel better ...keep the great memories and great times with you always
Spiel Posted November 22, 2012 Report Posted November 22, 2012 I don't know quite what to say Bob, the windfall is amazing and I'm happy for you. On the other hand I'm deeply saddened at your loss, I'd like to believe that in your sorrow your wife is still somehow looking after you. May you find some small comfort in that way of thinking. Regards and condolences to you Sir. Chris
