My longtime and very best friend ever, your home going was way too soon. We still had a lot of lunches to share and movies to see. No one will ever sing Happy Birthday to me the way you did. I don’t know if the heavenly angels will let you join their choir, but then again up there you may have perfect pitch. I will never stop loving you and missing you. My sincere condolences to your entire family.
Your BFF
