To my dear wife Lina (Mom and Nana),

I hope you’re resting in peace, somewhere beyond the stars-somewhere my eyes can’t reach,

but the quiet moments too– the ones where I smile through the ache.

I miss you in ways words can never fully hold.

Some days I carry the weight a little lighter… and some days, it crushes me all over again.

I still talk to you when no one is listening, still hope you hear me in the silence.

If you do, I hope you know this:

I love you endlessly

And no matter where I go, you’re always with me–always.
