Miss Colton, I sure do miss your smile... I sure do miss your laugh... I sure do miss YOU!!! YOU, my dear San, were one of my most favorite people I was blessed to have in my life. If it wasn't for you, I would not have Amy for one of my dearest and closest to my heart forever girlfriends. I still remember the first time you caught her and I listening to Tami's Siouxsie & The Banshees and Nina Hagen records, you allowed us to continue instead of stopping so we would not get caught! The times I spent with you and Amy at your quaint apartment were some of thee BEST times I get to have in my heart for always. I cherish your girls and I promise to continue to be around for them and love them as you would until we all meet up in heaven and have more COOKIE SWAP parties together all over again! My heart has a forever hole in it, you will be missed but NEVER EVER EVER forgotten..... With all of my love, your sweet Lisa Lisa
