My dear friend I have a lifetime of treasured memories of all the days and great times we shared whether it be riding to school in your that ole Dodge Dart you had, all the nights we stayed up talking til sunrise, playing our 8 track tapes and singing right along never missing a verse, sharing the grief on the days our daddy’s died, and seeing the expression on that beautiful face of yours the first time u saw the ocean. You will always be with me and I will love you forever my Dear Friend.
So many wonderful memories of Beverly and Midway Restaurant. My dad loved to eat breakfast there every day when he lived with me and they were so kind to him. I will miss her smiling face and beautiful smile. Much love to all of her family.
