You left a space no one can fill,

My heart is quiet, deep and still.

But memories soothe the deepest part,

Of losing you, my other heart.

Until we meet again Norma, the memories we made will have to be enough to sustain me.

Rest in peace dear sister. I loved you so much. And will always love you.

I’ll see you on the other side.

Nancy

NORMA

IT'S BEEN ALMOST A WEEK SINCE NORMA LEFT ME, BUT I CAN STILL SEE HER MISCHIEVOUS SMILE AND HEAR HER

CONTAGIOUS LAUGH.

I KNEW NORMA AS A FRIEND-A LIFELONG FRIEND.

WE DIDN'T SEE EACH OTHER FOR YEARS BUT THE LOVE WE SHARED WAS ALWAYS THERE.

IT'S DIFFICULT TO PUT INTO WORDS WHAT FRIENDSHIP IS-

IT'S AN UNSPOKEN BOND THAT EXISTS.

IT'S A SECURITY BLANKET THAT YOU CARRY CLOSE TO YOUR HEART FOR YOUR LIFETIME.

IT'S KNOWING THAT THIS ONE PERSON IN THE WHOLE WORLD KNOWS YOU AND LOVES YOU.

IT'S BEING THERE, CARING, DOING, AND NEVER TALKING TO ANYONE ABOUT THE OTHER'S NEEDS.

NORMA WAS THAT FRIEND TO ME-

WE’VE SPENT TIME TOGETHER IN THE LAST COUPLE OF YEARS, CATCHING UP, REMEMBERING OLD ANTICS,

AND AMID MY TEARS NOW, I CHERISH THOSE VISITS,

THEY SHALL BE MY NEW SECURITY BLANKET-

I WILL HOLD SO DEAR.

REST IN PEACE MY BESTIE, I KNOW JIM HAS BEEN WAITING FO YOU.

LOVE YOUR BEST FRIEND SINCE 6TH GRADE...CHRISSY
