Almost that time again. It never gets easier. I wish people weren´t posting anonymously on this wall because if I don´t know you I´d love to hear things about my mother. I did not get enough time with her and wish I knew more about her.

I believe it’s been 14 years, I’m looking at pictures of you and I wish I could hug you again, or hear your voice. I love you

Dawn was one of my best friends. I think about her often. There was a time when we did everything together. Some of my best memories were made with her. She was that friend that I could call if I needed her and she could do the same with me. We lost touch for a few years and when I heard she had passed it affected me. In this life if you find that one good friend, you're lucky. I found that friend in Dawn. I miss her and she will never be forgotten.
