My beautiful sister I rejoice that you are no longer in pain. But tears flow for the loss of your being. I already miss you so much. I wil miss the times we went shopping, going out to eat, going to the casino or just sitting around and sharing secrets.
It is not good by but see you later. Spread your wings and fly with the butterflies you loved so much.❤
