Every January Janise would ask me how long has it been? It's been 15 years since I moved to Arizona and I still have my Memory photos and cards next to my bed on the nightstand. I believe a happy memory is the greatest gift you can give someone, it's always there when you need it. When I would here her voice,I could see the smile on her face, even though we were on the phone many miles apart it felt like we were in the same room. My Way by old blue eyes is on my music playlist when it plays I always say this one is for you Janise, now when it ends I will look up at the sky and say with a tear in my eyes"Janise, thank you for being my friend and all the happy memories." Forever in my heart, Judy A-b-t
