Sisters share a tie that endures beyond space and time. No longer in this world. I can’t call you but I will never stop talking to you. RIP Margaret I miss you, I love you.
She was gone so quickly once I heard she was unwell. It took me awhile to figure out what to say and it all felt inadequate, but here it is anyway. I am so grateful that in the last few years we were able to reconnect through phone calls. We had many wonderful conversations and it was so good to have her to talk with. I miss her so much more than can be conveyed.
