She was such a loving, vibrant woman. I miss her!
All through our lives, Jane and I enjoyed playing games. I had to watch her close, as she loved to “cheat”, and with a twinkle in her eyes and a grin on her face when I’d catch her, would answer, Who, Me ? She always had me laughing, whether I was winning or loosing.
Jane and I were friends from our first day at college as dorm neighbors. We had big fun exchanging “rude” birthday cards and laughing on the phone for years, no matter where we lived. I will miss my dear friend.
Thank you Cilla. I’m glad this sad occasion connected us and we can continue the rude cards.
Thank you Elle.
Thanks Frank. I’m glad we can be together in a couple of weeks to celebrate her life.
