When our friend passed away days after one of our lunch gatherings, my heart or my head wasn’t open to organizing or meeting with old school pals again. I did state I would attend if someone else initiated it. Pam, Pam and I met earlier this year and then again today including Joyce. I want to think our sweet and dear friend, Cathy, is smiling about that and was with us in spirit. My tears as I type this tell me I was wishing more than that. I. MISS. HER! We had a great time, a couple of hours seemed like mere minutes, but we laughed and loved and vowed to do it again.
Yes Donna, this is for Cathy and all the good times we had together..I miss my friend but am glad we could all rekindle our friendships! I’m so glad we decided to continue to get together and remember our good times and our times to come..I’m thankful that Pam M. and Joyce decided to come also! Here’s to more lunches and talks and good times for us! Let’s keep the fire burning for our friend and what our get togethers meant to her. Thanks Donna for all you do and most of all for staying my friend for all these years! Love you girl..
Thank you, Pam, you know how I feel about you. I’m thankful we were and are such good friends. Your sweet words this morning started this day out right!
Donna, I know that it hurt you to lose Cathy, but ALWAYS remember that the Lord blessed you by allowing you to see Cathy one last time,( something that some people were not allowed to do) and even though you did not know it ,you did get to tell her good bye. I know that our words can not make it easier but you were blessed to share some of her LAST happy minutes with her.
Aw, that was a sweet comment, thank you, Danny! I said for weeks after she died I suspected she knew her days were numbered. And yes, I agree with you, I was blessed to give her one last hug that day and even more fortunate to speak with her by phone one last time before the night she died. I still have her name, numbers and emails, I don’t ever want to erase her from anything!
