CASPER, Wyo. (KABC) -- A husband who died of cancer managed to show his wife how much he loved her even after his death. He arranged to send his wife flowers for Valentine's Day every year for the rest of her life.

Last February, Jim Golay was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumor. He contacted a flower shop near their home in Casper, Wyoming, and set up the deliveries.

His wife, Shelly Golay, first found out about the arrangement when the flowers were dropped off two days before Valentine's Day.

"He's such an amazing man and he can love beyond boundaries. There is no boundaries with him. Even in death, he's just amazing," she said.

Shelly says she first thought her children had sent the flowers. She realized it was her husband after she contacted the florist.
