From one who knows...
Never forget, always honor the memory.
I will search for you through a thousand worlds and ten thousand lifetimes until I find you."

I gave you a “like” because I’ve been where you are. I wish I could say it gets better, but it doesn’t. You just get use to a new “normal”.
The tears subside, the pain eases some but never really leaves. Family and friends help. I hope you have plenty of both.

Chief , my heart goes out to you . Can't say I know how you feel , we've been married 40 years and we're still going . But being married this long , I don't even want to think about my other half leaving me alone . When it happens I hope I go first .

Master Chief they say time heals all wounds but I never found that to be truthful nor should it be. Always remember the good times you shared with each other.

My Wife and I have been married for 52 years, when we go I want it to be like the last scene in Bicentennial Man!
It is my understanding that the Government will supply a bronze (U.S Veteran) device that can be secured on a Headstone. The monument source just has to furnish a copy of a death certificate to obtain one and then mount it.
My brother's birthday was the 14th. Sorry for your loss.

My sincere condolences. I have no words that can ease what you are going through, and will have to live with for the remainder of your days, but I wish you only the best.
This makes me realize how lucky I have been. I've been married to the love of my life for 58 years and counting, and know that few get to have what I have right now. I find myself with caring family, but few friends and none of them close. I have no idea how I would carry on if my wife were to go before me.

OP
No one has said/posted what is the significance of a quarter on the head stone means.......
A penny says, "I came by to remember."
A nickel says, "We were in basic or boot camp together."
A dime says, "We served together."
A quarter says, "I was there when you died."
