To my Sister,
Time will heal the pain as we go on without our sweet Melissa.
Remember all the good times that we had with her and all the joy she shared and will continue to share in our lives.
You wear an armor of steel with all you have been through. God will bless you and keep you strong through all this.
I love you Janina, don't you ever forget that. I will always be here for you to lend an ear, to yell at with your frustrations and to give...
