My heart breaks. We could talk for ever. I didn't like talking politics but you did. You love "Big Brother" I didn't. So what did we talk about? Our dogs. We loved our dogs. From Tiger to Pepe from Oliver to Chili. We loved our dogs. I couldn't forget Tiger's first birthday party. I brought Oliver and Mary brought her dog, that left behind a few fleas. You were so angry. But later we laughed.
You were kind, beautiful, elegant, sophisticated and classy. I'm glad that I could help whenever you called. That's what friends are for, that's what we do. I miss you.
