I can clearly remember the day I lost my best friend. The emptiness, the loss, the pain and then the relief that she was finally out of pain and in the loving hands of our Father in heaven. Although we lived miles apart during her last few years, the weekends I was able to spend with her will forever be memorialized in my mind. She spoke of hopes and dreams she wanted for her two children. Amber and Darren were her everything. When anyone asked Michelle what she wanted to be in life, she always said “I want to be a mom.” Everything she ever did in her life, she did for her children. I’m sure she is very proud of both her children, I know I am.
