Remembering her husband on the day, Connie Ferguson said she could not believe it had been two years since his “transition”.”Time has become so strange to comprehend,” she wrote. “You’re still so alive in my heart and in my mind and in the memories we shared.”

“I still feel your presence so much, but the thought of never seeing you in your physical form again overwhelms me from time to time. But the Lord has cuddled me and our beautiful family in His arms, and we continue to move, to hope, to dream,” she continued in the caption of a series of photos and videos of the two of them.”We still do a lot of the things we did together – travel with the fam, eat your favourite food, play your favourite music, dance and laugh! Yes, we laugh a lot, and every time we do, we can literally hear your echo in the midst of ours! You are just unforgettable, man! Truly one of a kind,” she wrote.

“God loved me so much he gave me you, and although it seems like it was only for 20 years, it was for eternity because a love like ours never dies.”interview last year, Ferguson spoke about Shona dying a day before they would have celebrated 20 years of knowing each other.

“I was holding [out] to the 31st to complete that 20. I kept telling him one more day, you and I are 20, but it didn’t quite pan out that way,” she said.

She also spoke about not being at the hospital when Shona took his last breath. “Clearly, he didn’t want to put me through that.”
