Heather was my cousin. I have 3 sisters and Heather was my age. As a child, I remember Heather playing in the ocean as if she were a dolphin, it was darn impressive, she was fearless and always had a dark tan. I remember searching for treasure in her backyard at the mill, we mostly found bottle caps, colored glass with smooth edges and old dirty pennies. I remember the way she held her own, I always thought she was tough and I liked that cause I was a tom-boy too. She had an infectious laugh and a great sense of humor. We had some great discussions. I always thought she was lucky cause she only had a brother and she thought I was lucky cause I had three sisters. We discussed family, friends and God. She was a big part of my childhood and I will always be greatful for our relationship. Take good care of her God. Take good care of her family.
With fondest memories
