I can't tell you what a hole I have in my heart-though I am glad that she is no longer suffering. In my mind, I will always hold the memory of my dear friend with a big glass of red wine, some brie cheese and her wonderful smile. I will miss her so much.

Hi Buddy,
I was saddened to hear of Natalie dying after so many medical "cures". I will treasure the brief conversations we had at past Thanksgivings. I will keep you and her family in my prayers.
Love, Phylis Jorgenson
