About Pam

My lovely wife, Pam I believe every man has a deep need to be someone's hero; to have someone for whom he can conquer the world - in whatever form that may take. For me that person is Pam, my beautiful wife of nearly 14 years. She is my muse; my inspiration; the heart of our home. She has been with me through the good times and the bad (though it seemed sometimes the bad far outnumber the good); in health and sickness (and at times it seemed as though health would never return); and in poverty and ... well more prosperous times at least, if not wealth. Yet through it all she believed in me - even when I did not believe in myself.

So I sally forth to defeat whatever dragons there may be each day (and to tilt against the occasional windmill) with her token tied to my heart to give me courage and remind me that I have so much to be fighting for. And when I come home she celebrates the victories with me, and binds my wounds on those days when the dragons (or worse, the windmills) win. Then we repatch the armour, reshare the dream, and prepare for the next day - together.

Below is a song that reflects my feelings about our relationship. It was written by John Lennon and recorded by Mary Chapin Carpenter.

Grow old along with me

The best is yet to be

When our time has come

We will be as one

God bless our love

Grow old along with me

Two branches of one tree

Face the setting sun

When the day is done

God bless our love

Spending our lives together

Man and wife together

World without end

Grow old along with me

Whatever fate decrees

We will see it through

For our love is true

God bless our love
