    I’m so sorry for your loss. I know how it is to lose a sister. Every time I’m in T’ville I get ready to go and see my oldest sister, then realize that she’s not there anymore. I catch myself getting on Google Earth and going by her house. I have even dreamed of her. All I can say to you is you’ll never stop missing her. But you can rest in knowing that you have a pretty cool person waiting to escort you home and help you get settled in when it’s your time for the reunion. Blessings and love to all of you. Just keep her alive by spreading the love that she spread with you.
