Candy,
Just can not believe this. I just found out today. You always think that there is plenty of time to reunite and look back on old times and you forget that people are not always going to be there and that you should grasp the moments as you get them. I know it has been along time....too long now. My prayers and thought are with you, and it is with a heavy heart that I must say goodbye to you. You will be missed and the time we had will not be forgotten. Until we meet again my friend I will pray for you.
With deepest sympathy
Sandy
