We always think we’ll get around to visiting those we consider close friends and then life gets in the way.. then we regret when something happens that we didn’t get the chance to see them one last time. This is definitely one of those times that I wish I’d visited instead of thinking about it. Cheryl was always good to me and I greatly appreciate the times we shared and memories we made. Till we meet again… Hope and family I’m so sorry for your loss. Sending Condolences, prayers of strength, peace and healing. I love y’all…
