"Loving Her Was Easier": This is THE most romantic song Ed used to say
was for and about me. We didn't dance a lot but any time this
played, we danced and he would softly sing to me. He was a very good singer,
too! I'm glad I didn't remember this when I was planning his Celebration of
Life last April because I would have totally lost it during the service.

Loving Her Was Easier
(Than Anything I’ll Ever Do Again) Kris Kristofferson
I
have seen the morning burning golden on the mountains in the skies.
Achin' with the feelin' of the freedom of an eagle when she flies.
Turnin' on the world the way she smiled upon my soul as I lay dying.
Healin' as the colours in the sunshine and the shadows of her eyes.
Wakin' in the mornin' to the feelin' of her fingers on my skin.
Wipin' out the traces of the people and the places that I've been.
Teachin' me that yesterday was something that I never thought of trying.
Talkin' of tomorrow and the money, love and time we had to spend.
Comin' close together with a feelin' that I've never known before, in my time.
She ain't ashamed to be a woman, or afraid to be a friend.
I don't know the answer to the easy way she opened every door in my mind.
But dreamin' was as easy as believin' it was never gonna end.
And lovin' her was easier than anything I'll ever do again.
Achin' with the feelin' of the freedom of an eagle when she flies.
Turnin' on the world the way she smiled upon my soul as I lay dying.
Healin' as the colours in the sunshine and the shadows of her eyes.
Wakin' in the mornin' to the feelin' of her fingers on my skin.
Wipin' out the traces of the people and the places that I've been.
Teachin' me that yesterday was something that I never thought of trying.
Talkin' of tomorrow and the money, love and time we had to spend.
Comin' close together with a feelin' that I've never known before, in my time.
She ain't ashamed to be a woman, or afraid to be a friend.
I don't know the answer to the easy way she opened every door in my mind.
But dreamin' was as easy as believin' it was never gonna end.
And lovin' her was easier than anything I'll ever do again.
Ed
used to tell me every day in some creative way how much he loved me.
Sometimes he'd leave me a post-it saying, "Thanks for cleaning my
bathroom sink." Sometimes he'd send me an email, or write me a love
letter, or just tell me WHY he loved me so much. We hugged every single day.
How blessed I was to have been loved like that and I wish everyone could experience that same depth of love.
A few of the key components for a meaningful relationship are being willing to give of yourself, compromising, affirming the good points in each other, accepting those "other points", being kind to each other, and laughing together.
That’s how it was with Edmond and MaryMay Angelil!
Happy Valentine's Day, to my dear and wonderful Angel Man, who is now in heaven (probably arguing politics or shopping for a newer, faster computer) with lots of other angels.
