It's amazing that it's been 9 years because I still forget and want to talk to you, then remember that you're gone.  I often think, " oh, she'd be 87, 88, whatever, and think that's not old enough to be gone. 80 was too young and I remember what you said to Aunt Cissy.  That you did it your way.  But it wasn't our way, we all miss you and want you here with us.  I've been thinking about the questions that are unanswered and the things we should have talked about.  So the memories of our favorite times of the things you did are not as important as the thoughts we shared  and the ones I wish we had more time for.  Missing you and loving you.  Lee Anne oh, and Happy Birthday!
