At Chris' apartment, Bob helped him put together a bookcase. Hank the Labrador gave us both lots of love. Chris smiled as he watched Hank lay across my lap to lick Bob's hand.
Back home on Valentine's Day, Bob and I exchanged Valentines and a floral tribute. The day after he placed a sweet note by the flowers, announcing "love was in the air".
I sewed a pocket on the page to enclose the Valentines. The ephemera and frame were removed from the card he gave me.
