Chelsea:
Your mother and I were good friends in high school and had many fun times with the rest of our girl friends at slumber parties, games, and other school functions. Although our lives took different paths, I always looked forward to her visits when she was in Camas. My heart goes out to you in this difficult time. May life be very good to you. I know from talking to your mother that she thought very highly of you and was happy about you plans to marry.

What wonders you must be experiencing now, Paula. And it must be joyful for you to be with Zach.
There will always be a special place in our hearts where the memory of you is safely tucked.
