PDA

View Full Version : My Wife Has Passed


B-Love
11-12-2007, 02:40 AM
There are several people I consider friends at this site and several e mail addresses I had listed from years ago, no longer work.

My wife Lisa, succumbed to her 6 year battle with Breast Cancer, on Friday Night. She was/is the love of my life. I started dating her in 1985 and have been with her full time since 1987.

I am 42 years old and do not remember the first 6 years of my life. Of the last 36 years I do remember, I have been with her for 22 of them. To all of the married men here, enjoy every hug, every kiss and every time together. I miss her a ton already.

I used to visit Denver every year but stopped in 2002, right before she was diagnosed with Cancer. I know Meck, Disco and BroncoBum met her a few years ago, when they came to Long Island with OF1. Several others met her in Canton as she accompanied me in Canton for John's induction.

I look forward to many fun times with Broncos fans in the future. God bless.

I know it will not make you miss her any less, but I pray you find some peace in the fact she is in a better place now where she does not have the pain of dealing with cancer.

I'll keep you and your family in my prayers. God bless you my friend.

Deb gave me the awful news last night, Brian. Like others here, I was unable to get a PM through to you. I can't even imagine the grief you must be feeling. I know how long and hard Lisa fought this battle and I know you were by her side every minute of the way. I have no doubt your love and devotion to one another is the reason why she was able to find the strength to carry on as long as she did. God bless you, my friend.

B-love: you are living the very thing us older married guys worry about and fear the most, if we are honest with ourselves, and that is the nightmare of losing one's wife. As I think about that fear, I get tears in my eyes and a tightness in my throat, and the sense of sorrowful loneliness swells up an threatens to overwhelm.

During these times, one can only lean on others for help and support, and I offer that with prayers and hopes for comfort...

My deepest condolences to you and the family.......

I have no idea what to say here, all words sounding hollow and meaningless. I haven't had a ton of interaction with you on the board, but please know that I feel terribly for your loss. Just the thought of losing my wife puts a lump in my throat and a weight on my chest. May the gods bless you and see you through this tough time.

Dear Brian,

I am so sorry to hear of your wife's lost battle w/ cancer. I know from experience that words can't heal the pain you must feel at this sad time but please know that Mrs. Bum's, mine and all of the Omanes' thoughts and prayers are with you. I was so impressed w/ your wife from the moment I met her at your place and I'm so glad I got to know her if only briefly. She seemed like such a strong person. I'm sure she gave all the fight she could give. I have told Mrs. Bum several times that I can't wait for her to meet you and your wife when we come back to NY for a Bronco football game. We still want to get together next year when we play in NY. God Bless and may peace be with you.

all the best brian.
cancer (for the 3rd time) took my mother in '99, and not a day goes by we dont miss her. my father lost his wife, my sis and i (as well as my wife who never knew hew own mother) lost a mother, and our son (8 at the time) lost his only grandmother.

that said, the more time that goes by the more we appreciate the time we had with her.
ill pray for your comfort, though i know in this time that is difficult.

i will also promise to take your advice to heart.
it probably doesnt make you feel any better now, but know that your love and loss is an example to many, and your sharing that loss helps many of us keep things in perspective.
thank you and may God be with you. peace,

The beautiful thing about a commitment to marriage is that when you need her most, and after that many years, she'll still be there! Maybe not in the physical sense, but you can still feel her warmth and love. I hope all is well with you and your family and God Bless!

Los Broncos

Heres a little poem Brian, hope it helps.

Time is a thing we must accept.
The unexpected I sometimes
fear.
Just when I feel there's no
excuse for what happens,
things fall into place.
I know there is no way to
avoid the pain that we must
go through, to find the other
half that is true.
Destiny is what we all seek.
Destiny was waiting for you
and me.

I believe behind confusion,
awaits the truth for us.
Past the obstacles we face.
I value our life and trust.
Years of questioning why
things happen the way they
do in life.
Wishing that I could turn back
time, so we could join our
souls.

Tonight was day 2 of my wife's wake, and there was a floral arrangemnt from several of my old Broncos pals!!

Thanks Debra!!! I tried to explain who it was from to a bunch of people who never jump on the internet. A Broncos Worldwide Web Club they said?! "Yeah something like that".

Thanks to everyone who contributed. I e mailed Tredici who I know notified others. Debra, you have been a sweetheart over the years. When I met you and Nuggs at the ESPN Zone in 2002 for the Vanderjagt snow game, Lisa was already recovering from her lumpectomy from March of 2002.

Thanks everyone for the flowers!!

There are several people I consider friends at this site and several e mail addresses I had listed from years ago, no longer work.

My wife Lisa, succumbed to her 6 year battle with Breast Cancer, on Friday Night. She was/is the love of my life. I started dating her in 1985 and have been with her full time since 1987.

I am 42 years old and do not remember the first 6 years of my life. Of the last 36 years I do remember, I have been with her for 22 of them. To all of the married men here, enjoy every hug, every kiss and every time together. I miss her a ton already.

I used to visit Denver every year but stopped in 2002, right before she was diagnosed with Cancer. I know Meck, Disco and BroncoBum met her a few years ago, when they came to Long Island with OF1. Several others met her in Canton as she accompanied me in Canton for John's induction.

I look forward to many fun times with Broncos fans in the future. God bless.

Brian, I am sad to here this. I wasn't aware she was ill and it sounds that she gave it all she had. My heart, prayers and thoughts go out to you and your family.

I don't know how you feel but I do have a clue. My wife has been terminally ill since 2002, she is giving it her all as well. I know that one day, it will be her turn, she has already lived longer than what the doc's gave her for.

Again, thoughts and prayers to you, May God Bless you in many ways during this difficult time.

Aw, rats, B-Love/Brian.

Anything we can think of to say sounds trite and insignificant.

At least we got to meet Lisa (and you) in Canton.

I like the way you described your relationship. I think Louise (my wife) and I have a similar relationship so we can at least relate to your loss.

Our thoughts are with you.

Tom and Louise
