Juanita and my Mom (Rovena) had been friends since they were 10 years old (which means I have known here my entire life). They supported each other, loved to spend time with each other and I know Mom will miss her. So glad Mom was able to have some time with her the Wednesday before her passing for closure. Words were not necessary ~ the hearts were united. Thursday will be tough, but we will celebrate her life and remind everyone of her place in God's heaven.
