hi petunia,

sorry for your loss. they must have been a very good friend, for you to care so much. i lost my best friend a year ago. i didn't want her to go. i called her "sunshine" because she would always cheer me up. i know it hurts a lot. you'll miss the coversations and good times. i didn't think i'd get over it. no one could ever replace them. yet at the same time, no one can take away all the memories we shared. i'm lucky to have had her as a friend. it's not how long we have them in our life, it's how much they had to give us in our life. i'm so gratefull a part of her is in me. it' made me a better person. i still think that i'll see her again some day.
