"Rest in peace my darling. I'll see you soon, I'll be 87 soon so I will not be long...God Bless."
Simon Watkins, who found the bouquet, said: "I went to the bus station and there was a bunch of tulips tied to one of the benches in the shelter with a note attached to it.
"It was such a poignant note and full of love for his wife."
