Amanda, Bruce and Kevin and Shirley: my thoughts and prayers are with you at this difficult time. Beth and I were friends from childhood onward. We were always in the same Sunday School classes, church youth choir, and in many of the same high school classes. Her friendship remained strong no matter the miles between us.
