We looked forward to our 18th anniversary on August 16th — we made great plans for the future. Then, two years to the very day after his first coronary, Peter suffered another heart attack just before last Christmas. Again he seemed to be rallying, when quite suddenly in the early afternoon of March 3rd, the great and gallant heart of my beloved husband stopped forever.
