Impossible to just "add a memory" as I have so many that are playing thru my mind. Dee is one of my favorite people that I have ever had in my live and I love her deeply and I know she knows this - which helps me with my sadness as she moves to her forever home in Heaven. Hold tight Terri and Lundo - she is counting on you.
