Heron, it was an honor to have known you all these years. You were one of the nicest individual I have had the pleasure to have known. Thank you for being so nice to me, and, and for giving me advice when I needed it. I always looked forward to seeing you at the library, cause you always had something exciting to relate to me. Hey, say "hello" to Joe & Virgie up in heaven; and, if you happen to see Mom & her girls, tell them we love them and miss them very much. See you soon.
