Ode To Nancy

In precious moments that I am with you together sitting side by side we talk my heart is glad to spend this time with you as down the paths of memory we walk. The little girls we were have long since grown there is so much we've shared along the way through joys and sorrows that we both have known our laughter and our tears have paved the way. Now we both have reached our middle years as days unfold our future we will see together we will face our joys and fears our friendship will endure eternally. I'm blessed to have this friendship dear and true with all my heart you know that I love you. This is dedicated to my dearest and closest friend who I met when we were 8 years old. For 38 years this friendship has grown strong and beautiful. I love you, Nancy!

Robin, I hope you have shared this wonderful tribute with Nancy. I know exactly how you feel about her. When my childhood friend Barbara drove 400 in a blizzard to attend my father's funeral, I felt blessed. Family functions have never been much fun since my husband died. (He was older than I, but only 53.) Thanks for reading "Too Fast for Me." My sister called and someone robbed my Dad's house tonight. Fiends who read obits and feel the deceased are fair game. Love you & your work!

Smile-What a wonderful statement from "Your Precious Heart Towards Your Lives Dearest Friend!"-It is good to have these friends; to have these networks in life; to always turn to, within any emotional moment which may arise within ones life!? "Hello Gifted & Beautiful Robin!" Sorry that I did not get back to You yesterday upon this, but glad to have done so today-to know you have such a friend makes my heart happy-for "You Are A Very Special Lady Unto My Heart!!!" Love Always, John!:)
