Hey Andrea it´s been 7 years without you and yet it really does feel like yesterday we were all just kids running wild through the halls of Blue Valley Middle School. God I miss those days things where so much simpler. I smile now when I think about you because I know your watching down on all of us laughing at all the dumb stuff we do and letting your joyful personality grace the heavens. Man they sure are lucky to have you. I miss you lots- WW
