Carol is a friend from childhood, we met at age 8, and we considered her a part of our family. Surviving childhood and our teen years were full of angst and giggles. We lost contact for a time, but she was always in my thoughts and prayers. We reconnected periodically through the years. I will always remember the time I spent with her and Greg in Florida a few years ago. Be with God and in his loving arms, my dear friend.
