You will be missed. So many memories. Your quick laughter, no nonsense attitude but always the laughter. Miles have kept us apart, each of our lives going different direction but always the thought that I have to get there to see you but always something comes up. Now it's too late. You will always live on in my heart. Love you always. Your niece Debbie.
