Jim, Linda, Diane and families, I was so saddened to hear of my dear friend's passing. When we worked at the drugstore together so many years ago, her first priority was always the three of you and thru the years I know that continued when I'd receive pics every year of the new additions to the family. She was so very proud of the entire clan, and rightly so.
Dear Juan, you will be sorely missed for all of your wonderful qualities and for being my second Mom. You had such wisdom and heart. My admiration for you will never cease. Here's to our 47 year friendship. Your strength kept us both going!
Rest in peace, blessings and love to your family.
Love,
Sandy
