Jess, a day doesn´t go by that I don´t think of you. We were sisters at heart ( much closer than the cousins we were born to be). Watch for me at Heaven´s gates...all my LOVE

My dearest sympathies to you Wally and your family .I met Jess in Greene Twp. school in grade school. We ( Janet Robinson , Karen W. )we kept in touch all those years. I went to NY to go to high school , but the 3 always wrote to me. Coming home in the summer we shared laughs and good times. I came home 8 years ago and I went to visit her . It seemed like time had stood still for us. We emailed and talked over the last few years. Jess , you
were a good friend to me and I shall never forget you . You live in my heart .
