Julie, it took me a while to respond to you and the loss of your friend.

I lost my best friend when we were 24, and this week was finalizing plans to memorialize her forever at our Alma mater. I had a long talk with her mom Friday evening. So your message struck such chords in me.

You indeed lost a family member, not one of blood but of heart. I am so sorry for your loss and the pain you have. I carry my Barb with me in my heart, and try to be the kind of person she was in life. You are in my thoughts and heart, and we are all here for you, too. 👭💝💞
