Heidi and I grew up together. As a child, I spent a lot of time at her house. She was funny, sweet and unbelievably kind. We shared so many childhood memories together. Sadly life gets in the way and I haven't seen Heidi in many years. I was absolutely shocked to hear of her passing. You always think that you will have time to tell someone what they mean to you. I am sorry I never got a chance to tell her. To her family, I am so sorry for your loss and You all are in my prayers and thoughts today and always. Heidi's light will continue to shine bright and she will never be forgotten by those who had the pleasure of knowing her and loving her. She was very special and she will be greatly missed. All my love Mark to you and your family and I am so so sorry.
