Looking at these pictures makes me remember the days gone by. I forgot how beautiful you were. From the days of writing my punishments that the nuns made me write for talking to marriage, babies,grandbabies, great grandbabies. Now seeing you to the end. I will miss you my sweet friend. Send me a message if you can to let me know that you are still around. I love you and will see you again someday.
Even though life separated us for many years, I’m so glad God brought us back together again. We shared so many good memories of years gone by. Your beautiful smile and sense of humor which brought me to tears at times and will never be forgotten. I will see you soon. Friends forever, Connie.
