Gerald "Bullfrog" Matheny

As the Holidays begin, we are aware of a very important part of our family that is not able to share our time with us.  We wish everyone around us a happy and safe Holiday and hope that they will all keep our loved one in their thoughts and prayers.  We miss you so much...My Dear Husband, Grandpa, Dad, and Brother and most of all My Grandpa (from Miss Grace).  We know that God is keeping you in His Loving Embrace.

Miss You With All Our Hearts and Love You So Much!

On this very special day, we pause to say thank you to our many past and present, brave solidiers, that served and currently protect this wonderful country of ours, with pride and dignity.  We honor our personal hero for his service and will forever be thankful to Jerry and all of his comrades for their faithfulness and personal sacrifices. 

A Soldier is Not Dead Until He is Forgotten.  God Bless America!

We Love and Miss You So Much

My condolences, as feelings of pain and bitterness become unbearable. It is my desire to convey a comforting thought based on the Holy Scriptures

          

  John 5:28 "Do not marvel at this, because the hour is coming in which all those in the memorial tombs will hear his voice and come out."

 

 

This passage speaks of the resurrection of our loved ones. It is not God's plan to see us suffer and die, so He extends the following invitation to us: "Come near to God and He will draw near to you" (James 4:8)

On this day, September 24, 1990, I had the greatest pleasure in marrying the love of my life, soul mate, and best friend.  Never in a million years did I imagine on that night of Wednesday, May 31, 1989, that my prince charming would walk into my life and change my life forever.  Then a year and 4 months later, we would become man and wife.  I was the luckiest woman on earth!  Jerry was charming, funny and so good to me and he always ensured that we shared so many wonderful times and memories together.  It wasn't that we traveled the world or had fancy things, but what counted most was that we had found each other and never let the other one forget how very fortunate we were to be blessed with a love like ours.  There were so many "I Love You s" spoken and we cared for each other in good health and bad.  We had looked so forward to this 25th Wedding Anniversary, not too many people make it, but we knew we would.  In my heart, we did make it and will pick up where we left off when the time comes... when we can start celebrating together again...in heaven.   All my thoughts and Love go to you My Wonderful Husband each and every day.  You were a one of a kind man, no one can compare to...The Love of My Life! 
Happy 25th Anniversary

You are forever in our thoughts and minds!  Tears are shed no matter what the day may be.

We want to remember those that gave the ultimate sacrifice in serving so proudly for our country.  Peace be to all.

We love and miss you so much!

Forever I will cherish our love for one another!  Days come and go, but with each one the loss of you and the despair in those feelings will never go away.  Love you more than ever on this very Blessed Day.  With all our love today and forever more.  Rest in peace my beloved Husband!

Thinking back on all the wonderful Valentine's Day that we spent together makes us happy but of course sad at the same time.  This is the day about Love and you and the Lord knows how much Love was shared in our home.  Lots of Love going out to our one and only.  Missing You So Much!

Empty...that is how life around us feels.  Not a day goes by that I don't remember you, think of you, and fondly speak your name.  To reminisce about our wonderful life together happens, but then in a moment you are gone again, like the white butterfly that visits us during the Spring and Summer months.  Again...there are no words that can express or describe the pain in our hearts.  We mourn you every day and will Love you Always.  
We know you are in a better place, free from pain and rejoicing with the Lord everyday!

As I sit here this Thanksgiving morning wishing, as I do every day, that you be here by our side.  I thank God for all the time that he gave us together and know that you will be waiting for us at Heavens’ door with that wonderful smile and it will once again be as it should.  Grace is laying right next to me and I am sure that thoughts of her time with "Grandpa" are still fiilled with love and devotion as she also misses you so much.    Loving You Always!

Veterans Day is a day to say Thank You!  I thank Jerry for his bravery on the battlefield and for being a proud American.  Thank you for serving for all our country and for helping to protect and preserve this country's freedoms. 
Thank you also to the men and women continuing to serve and protect. 
Thank you all for your service. 
God Bless America!
