Cheryl ,Janice and Elva,
I was sorry to hear about LuAnn's paaing. That picture of her is a very good one. I haven't seen her in years. Just know I am thinking of you and your family during this difficult time. I am sure you have so many memories of her and they will always be with you. Take care.

Oh I believe there are angels among us
Sent down to us from somewhere up above
They come to you and me in our darkest hours
To show us how to live
To teach us how to give
to guide us with a light of love.
In my heart I know that you'll be fishing somewhere soon LuAnn.
I guess it's up to me to carry on our tattoo. I hope I do you proud.
Rest in Peace Sister.
Love you.

Makes me sad that I did not get to say "good-bye" to LuAnn; have a lot of fun memories of our days of hanging out together.
This is a wonderful picture; she looks "happy". Sorry for your loss.
