I wear his t-shirts and boxers as my pajamas. I also have some of his ashes in a necklace that I wear around my neck. I also got a necklace for my 19 year old daughter so she has some of him with her up at college. I think he’d find it pretty neat that he was a “gift” at Christmas (his favorite holiday).
I too have our wedding rings on a chain. and wear some of his t-shirts/sweatshirts. His “totem” was the OWL and I have little stuffed owls around the house, one in the kitchen I throw a kiss to every time I pass it. I have pics of him around and some of his cards to me under magnets on my craft room door – so I see them every time I go through the door. One other thing I have continued is leaving him notes – written with a bar of soap – on the mirror.
When my husband first died last April I wore his clothes everywhere, everyday, even to work .. Now I wear his hoodies and hats just when I feel like it .. I wear his wedding ring on a chain around my neck like others everyday
Yes I do wear Larry’s clothes, slippers, lounge clothes, baseball caps, I always have, even when he was with me. I also have his ring on a chain around my next with a Snoopy pendent he gave me and my medal.
I am surprised to be the only one but I wear a lot of his clothes. It gives me strength. His strength. I wear his jeans, cargo shorts, board shorts, PJ, T-shirt, socks,belt… We were about the same size and we did wear each other clothing in the past but not as much or as often. It is good for me. At first I was so scared damage them but I am more relaxed about it now.
I often wear my husband’s wedding ring, either on a chain or overtop my own wedding ring. I’ve been told wearing my ring won’t “help” if I am trying to find a good soul to care for and be cared for in return but I am a floral designer. There is not a man on the planet shopping for flowers for anyone other than his own true love.
At some point I would like to buy jewelry that holds his ashes. He once gave me a charm bracelet and I have seen charms made specifically for this.
Occasionally I will wear one of Steve’s hoodies but I didn’t keep all the clothes as they would have been a constant reminder of his absence.
I wear a glass blown purple heart with some of my wife’s ashes in it. Purple was her favorite color. It keeps Christy close to me. I miss her so much. Just over a year since she has passed.
When we first met, I gave her a poem about Love I had found, and she had it laminated. She carried it in her wallet ever since. Now that she has passed, I now carry it.
Judith had a small homemade cuddly toy from her childhood. It’s been on the nightstand for the past 10.5 years. I no longer have a landline, but I kept the answering machine, because her voice is the message.
Same here with my husband’s phone. Its off…but I haven’t been able to permanently turn it off with Verizon…I also have a necklace with some of his ashes.
On cold days, I wear Stephen’s favorite beat up sweatshirt. I also have a few lightweight jackets/hoodies that I snuggle with. I also wear his wedding band next to mine.
I bought my husband a leather wallet some years ago and he loved that wallet.
I had the inside of it engraved with, “To Frank, the best husband money can buy.”
I still carry his wallet around with me in my purse just to have something of his close to me.
I also made a resin necklace with some of his ashes and a little silver angel. I made another one for our granddaughter too because she calls him her angel. She said, “My guardian angel lives in heaven and I call him PawPaw.” That is so sweet.
Yes. I wear his wedding rings on my right hand. I still wear my ring on my left hand. I also wear a pair of bracelets that he always wore until he got too sick & thin for them to stay on.
I wear his wedding ring with mine and some of his ashes in a heart shaped locket. It brings me comfort. I also have a teddy bear made out of one of his shirts that I hug every night before I go to bed.

I wear a couple of Koni’s pierced earrings every now and then. I feel like I’m taking her with me when I am out in the world.

I haven’t been able to turn off his phone yet, and it is always in my purse. I have a necklace with some of his ashes that brings me some comfort.
