Dear Sandy,
You have been in my heart every single day since last August when Fred got sick. I've always known that you were a strong person, but but the love and support you've given to Fred for the last 7 1/2 months has been amazing. He died knowing how much you love him.
You know that I will always be here for you. You have so many friends who love you and would do anything for you. I know that I don't have to tell you that all you have to do is ask, and I'll be there. I love and respect you, you are my dear friend, and I'm here for you. XXX Diane
