20 years without you. I was only a year and 9 months when you left and Jr was barely two months - he was a month and 6 days to be exact. I’ll never understand why you left us, but what I do know is that I wish I had a chance to know you. I’ll love you regardless and you live through Jr and I vigorously. - Posted by: Heaven Leigh Monkman (Daughter) on: Dec 22, 2020
