“I Miss You Christine”

My Friends,
Two years ago, on this date 11/26, my love, my sweetheart, my baby-cakes went to be with our Lord.
I fell in love with Chrissy
before I even knew her name, or even her relationship status. I was in college
at the time, working several jobs, one of which was security guard at Pergament’s
Hardware Store, near the Staten Island Mall. It was my first day and as I was
at the front door, this stunning, very beautiful woman was coming into the entrance.
I remember my heart was racing and all time and space, and everything around
just froze. I said to myself, under my breathe, “There is the future Mrs. Dacey!” I can’t fully explain the way, I
really experienced it in words. It was just so absolutely amazing. She came
around the corner, I of cause checked her out fully, she didn’t even glance at
me; she looked absolutely incredible, this tiny, gorgeous woman, she just stole
my heart.
Then she did the ultimate, she
headed towards the time clock. I thought to myself, “Holy Cow, she works here, Thank you Jesus.” And in that moment, I
knew she would be in my life forever. Then she was stationed at the Return
Desk, right next to where I was standing. Talk about amazing! Our first date
was Chrissy’s 26th Birthday, August 21, 1986. I was 21 years old.
Well, then the rest is history...
There was No Way in the world I was going to lose this woman I wanted her for the rest of my life. Period. And so our lives began together, rather quickly.
