Girlfriends since 1955.  When we both married, the guys became buddies.  We played cards a lot but no matter what it was, we shared lots of laughs.

When Cindy & Bill had their first baby, Scott, he was sitting in his high chair, and decided to shout out a big Linda style laugh!  Cindy nearly fainted.  It could not be, surely her baby was not going to pickup my laugh! I got warned!  Haha  Along came precious Karen, but sadly Bill soon lost his fight with cancer.  

When Cindy met and married Dick, we all felt the blessing of the Lord.  What a wonderful husband, dad and friend he quickly became.    When retirement rolled around, they sold their Michigan home, bought a lovely RV and we had the pleasure of spending time with them in our area of Mississippi as well as Louisiana or other southern areas we could drive to during winter the months.

No one cooked better than Cindy, and she was a dynamite baker too.    You never went away hungry for sure!  I'm in good and regular touch with Dick and Karen ... hearing about Scott that way, which is fine.  They've suffered quite a loss, as any of us have if we were Cindy's friend.  I look forward to spending forever with her in the New Jerusalem.  :-)
