Heilman added, “Now your heart has found peace, but it will always beat strongly in my body. Fortunately, you knew that — and also how much I loved you because I told you every day.
“I will do everything I promised you because you made me believe in me. I can write in ink so that the tears gush. Thanks to everyone who takes care of me. I am eternally grateful for this support.”
In a moving eulogy to the tender moments they shared since they started dating in 2017, the Oslo-based lawyer added, “I know you will be with me the rest of my life, take care of me and cheer me on. I know that you took care of me until the end. I am eternally grateful to you for being so close to you. Eternally grateful that I was able to take care of you and that I could feel your heart every night in our time together.”
