I hope everyone finds joy and love this holiday. Thanksgiving will be bittersweet for me. I won’t have my beloved Lonnie with me, but I will be with family I love dearly. Happy Thanksgiving.
I am over whelmed with everyone’s heart felt words and prayers. Lonnie has always been the love of my life. We met when we were 20 years old and I’ve been blessed to be married for 41 years. He was my rock and had the kindest heart. I will miss him until we met again.
This is year 6❤️
Wanda & Jamal still celebrate Thanksgiving together after the mistaken 2016 text.
Today I sat down with them for a personal interview reflecting on the past, joy & loss, and what’s to come for the two of them.

I got three shooting stars. Each one represents my Guardian Angels in Heaven - my husband who stands for integrity, my mother who was courageous, and my father who was about unconditional Love.
It was a lot of fun interviewing with The Today Show with Jamal. I can’t wait to go to his girlfriend’s aunt’s house for Thanksgiving. I hope everyone has a great Thanksgiving.
Just meet the nicest girl at Ace Hardware. She was so knowledgeable about paint and very friendly with all my questions. So here’s to Emily, I hope 2020 brings you everything your heart desires.
Thank you all for the kind words you have expressed about the accidental text I sent back in 2016. I have been overwhelmed by the kindness of so many people all over the world and how young people can articulate their feelings so well with words.
I am grateful for the friendship with Jamal and Mikaela. My husband and I enjoy the talks and laughter we share over good food. The 40 year gap in age doesn’t matter.
When you meet someone new take all the labels off & get to know what makes a person truly tick, it's amazing. I hope the New Year will bring joy and wonder to all.

Thanks Jamal for posting this pic. With all that’s going on in the world right now you reminded me it’s ok to smile. You and I are truly blessed. Not only to have met each other, but for the two other people in this pic. Thx

I feel alive all the time, like when I take a nap with my dog and I wake up rested or when I jammed my toe on a chair and the pain shot through me, I know I am alive.

Hi Don, yes I did recieve your cards and I thank you so much. Lonnie talked about you a lot and was so happy to connect with a friend from his Army days. I plan to send you pics when we’re allowed to have his funeral.
