I miss you already my dear friend. So many years of friendship & a lifetime of wonderful memories. I always told my brother Ronnie, the greatest gift he ever gave me was when he brought you home and introduced you to our family. A couple of my favorite memories is when we use to rollerskate around John-Ball Park & our saying was "if we have to fall, do it in style". And the days we would meet at Palmer Park & you'd throw the frisbee for Sheba. She could jump so far up to catch it & the smile of pride on your face was awesome to see! I believe our fur babies are in heaven also & now you're surrounded by the many you've loved. We shared the same birthday & because I was a year older, you always reminded me that I'd be a "Senior" before you. And I always reminded you that I'd get the "Senior Discounts" before you. And your 1st car, the "Dodge Dart", going down the highway, heading for the Intersection bar while singing, "You lost that loving feeling", by the Righteous Brothers while smoking a jib. You might be gone my beautiful friend, but you'll never be forgotten. Until we meet again. I have no doubts that one of the stars in the sky that are twinkling so bright, is you! Your forever friend, Rhonda
