My dear friend - You've been a sister from the time we tied sheets together and climbed down from my bedroom window. You showed us all what it meant to jump over hurdles. You achieved great things in your life. I will always keep you in my heart. Just last week I wore your hat and took you to an Obama rally, just one of many places we will go together.You'll always be an angel around us.
