How this hurts. I met Etta for the first time when we were placed alphabetically in math class. I set behind her and noticed we were wearing the same bloise, hers red and mine blue. We became instant friends. We spent lots of time together during our school days, and then lifr took us away from each other forany years. We united again in the early ninetys and again rekindled our friendship. We referred to each outher as sister. I am missing my best friend, my sister in heart and. Foremost in Christ. Etta, it wont be long and we will unite for the very last time where we will be friends and sister's forever. Rest high on that mountain. I will always miss and love you.
