My Life with Rita, the Love of My Life

For more than fifty eight years I have lived with the love of my life, Rita Leona Larcade Booksh.Those years, I believe, have been my life in heaven.She was the smilling will behind my working life, which brought us to so many wonderful places of this magnificent world. She was the will behind the man and believed her man was making the best decisions and providing the best for their marriage during his working life.She seldomed disagreed with my decisions and thoughts. I would have not changed our way of life for anyting. I may have changed one move, but then we would have missed an opportunity for an exciting assignment overseas. Oh, how I loved her! How beautiful she was! Yet what made her so lovely? Was it something that could be named and analyzed? No, I don't believe it is possible. Perhaps the Lord, using simple lines , and with one stroke drew an arc around her instilling magical beauty, beautiful brunette hair, brown eyes, a pleasing complection, a wonderful personality, and a pleasing temperment woven together with a smile for everyone, I wish to sumarize the many years of married life and how Rita was able to care for me, her aged mother, my brother, and in later years how I took care of her when she was affected with a dreaded disease. We, the doctors and I, searched for medicine to help her.There were few then and I do not believe the situation has changed. We used only, what I called, experimental medicines to fight her problem. Her pain may have ceased, but the patient was not entirely cured. With an attempt to narrate some of the details, I hope it will make pleasant reading. The many moves we madw could have been taxing for some: however, our life was lovely with my understanding partner.
