You were a great friend who was always there when someone needed you. I miss your witty humor and clever conversation. My world was a better place with you in it and I will never forget the wonderful memories i have of you and your family.

One of the best friends I had. She will be missed by so many who loved her. She was one of a kind. From her days at the Shenandoah Valley Herald and Shentel. People who followed her post about her progress. It started with her loss of Kenny and her progress over the past year. She was an amazing writer. I would have loved to read the book she wanted to write. I loved her and will miss her always.
