My heart and prayers goes out to the Drain family of whom I have known and grown up with from childhood. I have to reflect back on my childhood memories of My Sister and Sally being very good friends and her younger sister and I being very good friends as well (primarily because we had the same name!); I have fond memories of Sally thinking back on when our parents would make Sally and my Sister take me and her sister along with them every where they went!(the corner store, concerts, movies, etc.) Precious memories of spending the night just about every other weekend driving our parents crazy! I remember sally as having a great sense of humor with a kind and gentle spirit. I pray peace over the family and may GOD keep you during your time of sorrow.
Respectfully, Laura & family
