JERI,You were a very close and dear friend to me. I could talk tp ypu almost any time, about anything, and you wouldn't just sit there like a pretty statue. I knew that you were Jeri, I love you, and you will be because you always had the right answer for me. You always had a smile on your face, no matter how bad you felt!
