I truly can't convey how deeply I'll feel your absence. Our weekly adventures and little getaways brought me so much happiness. The chats about pets, the thrill of finding great deals, and those unplanned road trips wont be the same without you by my side. Your smile, laugh, and our time together will always be remembered.

Your dear friend, Anne
