Annie,
I only met you a few times but you were such a great friend of Benny's that I felt the need to tell you how sorry I am for your loss. I didn't know Joe but I know you had only just found out about Joe's illness during the time of Benny's death. I know that you did all you could for Joe from what Richard and Durra Ray told me. My heart goes out to your family and Joe's friends. Loss of a loved one is hard to take but time will help you heal. But you will never forget him and I know you will always love him. Annie, thank you for being Benny's friend and for loving him. I will always remember you for that.
With love,
Cindy Harris
