Dear Friend, I’ll miss you terribly. You have been my BFF since I first met you. We had some unique experiences and lots of laughter. Beth, I consider you as an extended daughter. And I love you. I know you would not want your mom here on this earth in pain and feeling that she was a burden. She never said anything remotely like that But she was in pain. My prayer is that you all continue to tell the little stories about her that make you laugh (and the del good stories), therefore keeping her in your daily lives. Love to you all. Lou King
