our live doll. You don't expect to bury the baby first.
The good news is that as the pain goes away, we are flooded with the best memories.

I hope so, I hope so. Our baby sister passed last week. She was 13 years younger than me. It made me feel better to read your post.

Deepest sympathy - last year we had a reunion and shared all her photos and memories - including her lame jokes. She gave me a beautiful pressure cooker twenty years ago and I don't pressure food, but I use it as a regular pot to make soup. I think of her once a week when I make chicken and celery broth.

My other sister is putting together a slide show


I have a wonderful story to tell.

in 88

She and her hubby myself and 2 of her boys went with me to Colorado to bring my things and a car home. When we left the weather was nice. When we got to the border we ran into a blizzard. We got stuck and an army personnel carrier had to rescue us took us to the Armory in Garden City. We had to stay for 4 days. the last night those of us left had to move to the fire house and we got showers and good food. We had a blast in-spite of the circumstance we were there because of.
