In 2012, 53-year-old Rich Cox lost his battle to throat cancer and tragically passed away, leaving behind his heartbroken wife of 26 years, Tracey.
But despite the fact that he's been gone for eight years now, Rich has made sure his wife gets a beautiful flower arrangement Valentine's Day, even if he's not there to give them to her himself.
The flowers were for both Valentine's day and for her birthday, which are only one day apart.
"It was really emotional," Tracey told CNN. "It was sad, but also happy at the same time because I just knew he'd always be with me."
But in 2014, another arrangement arrived. And then another in 2015. And another in 2016.
In fact, the deliveries haven't stopped, and she's received flowers every Valentine's Day for the last eight years.
Although the actual message changes every year, what remains the same is Rich's obvious love for his wife.
In 2018, the note read, "Tracey, even though you can't see me, I am always here. I love you. Love Rich."
She also said the annual flower deliveries help her remember her late husband and all the wonderful times they shared together.
"Every time I get them, it really brings back a lot of emotions and joyful tears," she explained. "It really brings back all the memories we were able to make together."
