This may be late, but is very heartfelt. The very best of friends since we were 9 yrs. old.....4th grade. All these years remained so, sharing good times, and sad. Was hard to deal with losing my husband and then my best and long time friend within 2 weeks. Loved her always, love her children, her family, as I know she loved mine. Rest in peace, my dear dear friend, who was always considered my sister(. I miss you so much, will always miss you. God Bless.
