I am writing this with a very heavy heart and many loving memories of my dear friend Barbara.
We have been friends since second grade. We talked, giggled and laughed to and from St. Augustine school everyday. We were The Andrew´s sisters in our eighth grade talent show; we were so proud of ourselves.
Everyday, for four years we rode the bus to and from St.Agnes. We were always worrying about passing our exams.Barbara always did her homework and I would copy it when we got to school.
In our sophomore year we went to summer school for algebra. We were shocked to see that you could actually walk out of class without lining up and every time the bell rang we almost stood for prayers.
Barbara was a bridesmaid in my wedding; we loved and supported each other year after year.
St.Theresa The Little Flower was our favorite saint. Barbara lived like St.Theresa, doing acts of kindness everyday of her life.
I love her with all my heart and I will miss her forever.
