Heather, I can't believe times gone by so fast since we seen each other . I was going through things iny garage when I came across Henry's favorite stuffed animal that he left here . We laughed how he kicked my brother square in the nutty buddies , well actually we rolled and laughed so hard we almost cried . I've not seen either your kids, but I'm sure they are doing ok with as tough as they were .
I miss you my friend , I truly do . Not as many of the North end folks left , Tacoma's gone and growd itself all up like the fancy , shmancy way .I'm sure you and my dad , Kurt Palmer , Aj LaChapelle ,and the rest are saving a spot near the water for the rest of us , undoubtetly we'll catch up one day . Until then make sure Chris Cornell,and Dimebag Darryl know I'll be expecting them to be ready to raise the roof ,or cloud.
Raindrops in my head ,the neverending pain , tears fill my blind 3rd eye , asking God if I'm insane. Looking in her soul,
the clarity became crystal clear.
While supergluing your broken heart , he found his image in your mirror . Ck2023 StoopidQ-pid

Heather I will truly miss you. You are a good person. You were a good friend and I will cherish all the fun memories we had. I hope you are looking down and realizing how many people loved you even if you didnt know it. We never tell people how much we care until it's to late. You were a true friend to me. I'm very sad that you left us so early. I know you are watching over us and your family.

I was shocked to hear about your passing. It's been years since I seen you but have great memories of our kids together. You were such a free spirit and didn't care what anyone thought. You used to crack me up with our conversations. Lilly and Henry if your seeing this, I hope and pray for strength and comfort for both of you. RIP Heather.
