Donna and I have been friends since second grade at St. Catherine’s school.. We shared many things throughout the years from Beatlemania to high school heartbreaks,childbirth and death of our parents. We were there for each other always. As the years passed we didn’t see each other as much but did our visiting on the phone. I knew she was always there for me and I was for her. I will miss our talking and giggling over times gone by. I wil cherish those moments and hold on to them forever. Till we meet again dear Donna ❤️
