I sure think about you still.... I hate that I wasn't there to say goodbye! We did have some pretty amazing talks, heard some amazing story's of triumph. You loved just telling your life's story and I loved listening. Mama's not doing very well and Aunt Dollie moved in at the ranch... You loved that ranch of grandma and grandpa's, they are the only williamses left or family you had left from your Mama's side... Well, condolences to the family and we're praying for you on this sad anniversary. Losing a loved one is never easy!
