I would always relate to Alma that I would like to be a friend just like her. She was always surprising me with gifts and cards for no reason. Only because she cared. She was the last voice that I heard before going to sleep at night. I am still waiting for the phone to ring with that soft voice. I miss you so much, but I know that you are in a better place. My last words to you was I love you and I meant it.33
