What can I say......I have lost one of my dearest friends. Sugar was a neighbor, a mentor, my friend, the older sister I never had. I am sooo going go miss her phone calls, her laughter, her love and caring for my family. It will be so hard for me to look out my front door. My love, hugs, and prayers to her family. She loved you all so much and was so proud of each and every one of you. My heart is broken....but I know that she is now pain free and with the love of her life.
