We've been friends for about 55 years and I've always considered you (and your family) as my second family; and your passing was sooo heartbreaking! You left us way too soon! You were such a great friend and you touched so many lives in such wonderful ways! I will remember you always with happiness and great affection! All my love, my BFF!
