My sympathies to the Lemon and Heard Families. Tacha and I were friends throughout all of our school years. I remember how beautiful she looked in the color yellow...I remember what we gave each other for Christmas in the 8th grade...I remember when I got engaged my junior year she wanted to wear my diamond ring...So I let her...I loved her as my own sister..She was a true and vibrant Gift From God to us all....
