Debbie

I'm at the age where you start losing people.Relatives , classmates , and friends.I got the news about Debbie's passing a few days ago.Our kids grew up together and her husband Larry was a good friend.Larry passed a dozen years ago.About a year ago we stopped by to see her.We talked of old times and laughed and promised we would visit again soon. We get busy and seem to always be in a hurry.  So every time we passed her house we would always stop by next time.There will not be a next time now.
She called me on my 60th birthday and we laughed,always laughed. I will be a pallbearer for her Saturday as I was for Larry.For all they did for me it is the last time I will get to do something for them. I can't say Larry without putting Debbie with him ,even though they got divorced.Love goes beyond that and she will be with him forever as she will be buried beside him. A jester that says far more than words ever could.
I saw something the other day that spoke to my heart "Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle".
Debbie thanks for everything.I am better for having known you ,and tell Larry hello.
