Today, as we begin this new chapter together, we hold close the memory of someone so dear to both of us. John was meant to walk his granddaughter down the aisle, a moment we had all dreamed of. His love, wisdom, and steady presence continue to guide us, and his deep affection for us as a couple lives on in our hearts. Though he isn’t with us in person, we feel him in every step, every smile, and every joyful moment of this day. We carry him with us today and always.
