I miss you my friend . You were always kind and compassionate and encouraging . Because of you I got to experience so many wonderful things - long walks and game nights, crazy8's and Rummikub, concerts of such the likes of "said the whale" and
"The airborne toxic event" ... I would never have dreamed of going to if it hadn't been for you. I am so blessed for having you in my life and that we were friends ... My forever 21 friend.

Our deepest sympathies for the family. Ursula was taken too soon but at least she had the strength and will to see her youngest grandson born. She will be a guardian angel for her children and grandchildren. We hope the cherished memories will comfort you at this sad time.
