Bobbi,
I was out of town at school all of last week and just saw the notice on the door at Curves. I am so sorry, I know how close you two were and after all these years it will be extremely tough for you to go on, but your love will bring you happy thoughts.
Again, Please accept my apologies for not knowing sooner.
