Saying goodbye
Was the hardest thing to do
You always listened
And knew what to say
Knew when to give a hug
When someone was having a bad day.
No one will ever take your place
I can always promise you this
It's hard to find someone like you
With a huge heart filled with love , laughter and true friendship. We will miss you dearly . Xoxoxo
