Oh Deanna! What fun we had! The two redheads at Piedmont Airlines; worked hard and played hard. You were always special and little did I know that years later I'd get to know your sister, Sydney, and not know she was your sister!!! My prayers are with your family as they suffer their loss, and I ask God to be with them.
