I don't know where to begin with this one. We grew up in the same community as children attended the same church, grew up but never apart. Still attending the same church. We did so many things. Song in the choir, worked in fellowship hall in kitchen, talked often, you did my child hair alot for school, we shared puzzles, recipe's, you were the best friend anyone could have. You kept it real. Regardless of who they were. Many times I could count on you to give me an answer to my concerns. We have laughed so many times. And even now I could think of a million things I could have texted you and we laugh. Or maybe you would say child child ( all I can do is wave my hand ) I will miss you so much. Never expected you to leave me. Not something we talked about. Rest on friend. I know mom dad brothers will enjoy the reunion. Love always Lorraine hardy
So sorry for your loss.
