I don't even know where to start. You were an amazing woman. Your courage I witness in the end was indescribable. You were with me from my first day at Giant and those beginning days with you I'll never forget. Or the rock you were to me during difficult times. I could come to you with anything! I know your at peace now with Artie. You deserve that. You will be missed always my friend and I'm so proud that you were part of my life ❤
