Back when we were 12 years old, Julie and I became fast friends for life and Mrs. Foster welcomed me into her home and heart. To say that we hit it off is an understatement. She was, forever, delighted by my presence and stories ( and the feelings were mutual) ....this was monumental because she did not suffer fools. She was smart, wise and funny and when she loved you, you knew it. I was so honored and so lucky to have her in my life. Even though she lived a quiet life , she has left a very big whole in the world. Bye bye Mrs Foster. No more sunlamps, I promise.
