A Love Letter To Casey Wallach

To celebrate Valentine’s Day, we asked Patch readers to write a love letter to that special someone and let us deliver it. This is William Wallach’s love letter to his wife, Casey:

“I spent many years in the United States Marine Corps. During my service, I sustained several deployments to combat areas. I have subsequently dealt with many issues of readjusting to civilian life. I met Casey well after leaving the Marines. She has been the rock upon which I have rebuilt my life. She is understanding, and patient. She also challenges me to be better, and to constantly be working on myself, and our relationship.

This is the love letter I wrote, and had delivered to my wife on our wedding day, April 14, 2017:

My Love,

Today we wed. Two becomes one for all time. Our Sun, Moon, and Stars unite. There are a million, billion stars in the sky. You are the most brilliant and magnificent of all the stars in the entirety of the universe. I lovingly dedicate my life, my entire being, to looking up toward the sky every night and gaze upon you. The bright, beautiful, loving star that you are. Just as the cosmos is ever expanding, the ways that I choose to love you will ever be expanding as well. The excitement of falling asleep beside you every night, and the anticipation of waking up with your sweet smile each and every morning is now, and forever will be my purest joy in life. In front of family, friends, and all of eternity we share our joy, our happiness, and our love. Forever joined, forever mine, forever yours.

Eternally yours,
Will”

--William Wallach
