I sing because I'm happy
I sing because I'm free,

My heart is heavy right now knowing that my friend is gone, she will never be forgotten. Julia never was one to complain about anything, if she was in pain she would never tell you. If she needed something she would never ask for it. But if you needed anything she would give it to you even if it was the shirt off he back. To Lizzy she was Grandma Julia, and to me she was my best friend. Until we meet again. RIP

To the Pope Family:
May you find strength in the comforting presence of the Holy Spirit during your time of bereavement. "Be not dismayed whate'er betide, God will take care of you."
