Marian Garretty was right when she said, "A sister is a little bit of childhood that can never be lost." We shared a childhood, along with DNA, popsicles, vacations and memories. Through the years we stayed close; close enough to discipline each other's children and wear each others lipstick. Close enough to fight -- and get over it. We gave each other things: like books and ornaments, colds and chocolate - and advice. I wish I had given you more chocolate and less advice! Our relationship lasted 74 years - from the time I made an entrance until you said good-bye. Only our sister Pat and our brother Richard knew you longer than I did. I am grateful for your children. They all carry a little bit of you:- a mannerism, a smile, even a flash of temper that reminds me of you. I thank you for the support you always gave me. Like Ecc. 4:9-10 says: "Two are better than one... for if either of them fall down one can lift up the other". I will miss you but I know we are just separated for awhile and then we will spend time together again.
