I'm going to miss my dear friend, my dear sweet and precious friend. No one could have a better friend than she was to me. I will be forever grateful for your special friendship over 62 years that I've known you, Madeleine. You have such a lovely family and if it sounds to everyone that you are still here with us, it's because you will be part of us always. Forever in our hearts. So long, Madeleine until we meet again❤❤❤I already miss talking to you
