I can't believe it's been 7 years, since you've passed, my dear friend. So many things have happened, since then. You have 2 beautiful grand babies. But then, I know you were with them, protecting them, before they came down to earth. I will never, ever forget you bestie, and will always treasure our beautiful friendship, and the wonderful memories we've shared.
