IM NOT SURE WHY I FEEL SO COMPELLED TO DO THIS, BUT DO IT I WILL. FIRST, LET ME SAY THANK YOU TO ALL WHO HAVE SHARED SUCH KIND WORDS TO NOT ONLY ME BUT SHERREES CHILDREN. THEY SEE THESE KIND WORD AS WELL. TO THOSE OF YOU WHO BEFRIENDED SHERREE ON HER FACEBOOK PAGE, THANK YOU. AS YOU CAN SEE, SHERREE WAS THE MOST POSITIVE THINKING PERSON MANY OF US WILL EVER MEET. I CAN SEE THE LOVE SHE SHOWED TO ALL OF YOU AS WELL AS THE LOVE YOU SHOWED TO SHERREE. FRIENDSHIPS WERE PROBABLY THE MOST IMPORTANT THING SHERREE EVER CLINGED TO, OTHER THAN HER MUSIC. THIS GIRL COULD RATTLE OFF THE NAMES OF SONGS FROM OUR SCHOOL YEARS BETTER THAN YOU OR I COULD EVER THINK OF DOING. IT WAS NO CONTEST. HELL, ID ASK HER HONEY, THIS IS SO PRETTY WHO SINGS THIS AND SHE WOULD RATTLE IT OFF AND ILL BE DAMNED IF SHE WASNT RIGHT. WHETHER IT WAS HARD ROCK, BELLY RUBBING MUSIC OR COUNTRY SHED NOT ONLY KNOW ITS ARTIST BUT THE LYRICS. SHE LOVED TO DANCE IN THE CAR. EVEN WHEN SHE KNEW I WANTED QUIET TIME SHE HUMM OR SING VERY QUIETLY AND MOVE HER HEAD AND SHOULDERS. SHES LOOK LIKE A LITTLE DOGIE IN THE BACK WINDOW BOOBY HER HEAD. WHEN SHERREE WAS ABLE TO WORK SHE WAS ONE OF THE MOST DEDICATED EMPLOYEES ID EVER SEEN. ONE TIME SHE WAS HAVING TROUBLE WITH A DEPARTMENT IN A JACKPOT NEVADA CASINO, AND I TOLD HER TO STAND UP FOR WHAT SHE BELIEVED WAS CORRECT, THAT ONLY A FOOL WOULD NOT RECOGNISE HER WORTH (THERES A LOT OF FOOLS IN THE CASINO INDUSTRY) BUT SHE DID WHAT I SUGGESTED AND YOU KNOW WHAT. SHE GOT A RAISE. I WAS VERY SURPRISED. THE CASINO NEVER GAVE ME A RAISE. SHE WANTED A SHITZU THAT SHED SEEN IN THE PAPER WHEN WE LIVED IN JACKPOT. THE DOG WAS 85 MILES AWAY IN BUEL IDAHO. WHEN WE GOT TO THE K MART SHOPPING PARKING LOT SHE JUST LOVED THIS 5 WEEK OLD PUPPY. WHEN WE WERE THERE SHE SAW ME GOING TO THE CAR AND GAVE THE PUPPY BACK AND STARTED TO GET IN THE CAR AND I SAID WELL, WE NEED THE DOG AND IM BETTIN THAT MAN WANTS SOME MONEY AND SHE WAS SO EXCITED AND SAID BUT HE COST SO MUCH. I TOLD HER, SHERREE YOU REALLY DONT THINK I DROVE 85 MILES ONE WAY AND AM NOT TAKING A DOG HOME WITH US DO YOU? HAPPY BIRTHDAY. LETS GET YOUR DOG, HAPPY EARLY BIRTHDAY. A WONDERFUL MEMORY. THATS THE BEAUTY OF MARRIAGE. NO MATTER HOW HARD IT GETS OR HOW MANY HURTS WE EXPERIENCE, THE MEMORIES ARE WHAT FUEL THE HEART. WE HAD CUJO FOR EIGHT YEARS. PUTTING HIM DOWN WAS THE HARDEST THING WE EVER DID. LIKE LOSING A CHILD. CUJO GOT PARVO HIS SECOND WEEK AT HOME. SHE CRIED AND CRIED AND I CALLED A VET IN TWIN FALLS AND DROVE THERE AFTER WORK 80 MILES FROM JACKPOT AND MET THE VET AT HIS SHOP IN THE LATE OF THE NIGHT. I PROMISED HER CUJO WOULD LIVE. HE DID. ,SPOOKY CAME LATTER, THEN JACK, THE TWO BIRDS, THEN WALLY THE TURTLE. MY WIFE WAS A KINDRED SOUL AND TO BE HONEST WITH YOU, LOVED ME LIKE IVE NEVER BEEN LOVED BY A WOMAN. EVEN IN OUR SEPERATION I ASSURED SHERREE, WED ALWAYS BE A COUPLE AND THAT TRUE LOVE DID NOT NEED ANYONES APPROVAL BUT THOSE WHOM WERE LOVED. WE TALKED EVERYDAY. WHEN I HADNT HEARD FROM HER IN A WEEK I KNEW SOMETHING WAS TERRIBLY WRONG. IT WAS SO OUT OF CHARACTER. GOD IS A LOVING GOD AND I BELIEVE KNOWS JUST HOW TO LOVE US. ID CALL THE POLICE WHERE SHE LIVED AN REQUESTED A WELFARE CHECK. THE REPORT ID GOTTEN FROM THE POLICE WAS THAT SHE WAS RESTING AND WOULD CONTACT ME SOON. I TEXT SHERREE MY LAST TIME AND LET HER KNOW I WAS VERY RELIEVED AND TO CALL WHEN SHE FELT BETTER. THAT NIGHT ID RECIEVED THE CALL OF HER PASSING. THE LADY AT THE POLICE STATION MADE A HUMAN ERROR AND TOLD ME THE WRONG DATE OF THE WELFARE CHECK. IT WAS THE DAY BEFORE. I THINK GOD KNEW I WOULD REACT IF ID KNOWN THE REAL FACTS AND WOULD HAVE GOTTEN ON A PLANE IMMEDIATELY ALL TO NO AVAIL. MAYBE NOT. YOU FIND YOURSELF RATIONALIZING MANY THINGS IN TIMES SUCH AS THESE. YOU ALSO FIND YOURSELF PUNISHING YOURSELF WITH WHAT IFS. THE DEVIL IS AN EVIL THING AND RIGHT NOW HES TRYING TO PUNISHING MY MIND IN REMINDING ME OF WHEN I MADE HER CRY, OR WHEN I SAID SOMETHING INSENSEITIVE. MY LOVING FAMILY REMINDS ME IM PUNISHING MYSELF FOR THINGS IVE DONE. FRIENDS, I CANT THINK OF ANY MAN WHO HASNT MADE HIS WIFE CRY. IM NO EXCEPTION. LET ME END MY BORING YOU WITH THIS. NEVER THINK YOU CANT TELL YOUR SPOUSE JUST HOW MUCH YOU LOVE THEM. YOU MAY NOT GET THAT CHANCE TOMORROW. PRAY FOR ME. PRAY FOR MY WIFES CHILDREN AND GRANDCHILDREN. AND TELL YOUR SPOUSE YOU LOVE THEM TONIGHT AND TOMORROW, NO MATTER WHERE THEY ARE OR HOW LATE IT IS. ...IT COULD BE LATER THAN YOU THINK. THANK YOU AND GOD BLESS YOU...DALE STALLINGS
