OVER ALL,TRUCKING WAS MORE OF OUR LIFE, A TRUCKERS WIFE,LIFE STARTED WHEN HE GOT IN SAFE&DIED,AFTER PLAYING BASKETBALL GAME!! SAME GAME. IN HIS LIFE EVERY SUNDAY,

If i could live my life for the rest of my life til i turn 100 from now a few months from 50. I would trucker wife was that life, i was so use to it.

After closer to 19 years of him driving of 27 yrs we were together & married10. It was another job to me,being there to prepare his things for trip,cooking extra,a friend,a ma to 2sons, a lover,a wife,all da above,he was the bread winner.

Over all, the company wore him out. Didn't respect,our family for our time! i shall not complain of the memories,of him driving otr. My husband died,on aug7, 2016.

The company that he drove for 10yrs,voided the check for week before&never gave me 1 for,the week he had came in the morning before passed nor vacation & said there was no insurances.

They gave me the check cause someone stole his wallet when he got in his personal truck to come home while i was at church!!

Still lay awake at nite sometime on fool mode,hurt,broken & no income just remember when&reading on da road texts!

Wives find a way whatever,they doing it for us! Driver,please respect&love yo wife,like its the last time, everytime!! rodger that!!!in his green bay packers fan voice! peace!!!

Yes trucker wives make sure you have him to purchase life Ins. high enough to pay off home, cars, bills, etc.... we have several life ins. policies just for that purpose.

He has company life insurance as well, he doesn't want me to be left high and dry. he pays for them all except for mine in case something happens to me he will have some money for expenses etc...make sure you are trained to do other work besides homemaker, you never know.

All these years I have waited for him I received many degrees. I can get a job anywhere I want. never consider yourself less than and make it through life without those worries. Put money away.

Live a clean life free of smoking, drinking, drugs, and eat healthy. be prepared for the worst and you will be able to survive.

Learn the system so you are able to collect his social security if he dies, make sure to marry him. good luck to all. just a word from the wise.

Thak you.
