I will miss you so, you where a great friend, casino buddy, someone that would listen to all my problems. I will miss being outside your house at 1 o’clock in the morning with our friends ready to go to the casino. Nita would call you and ask, what are you doing? You’re reply would be I was asleep! Do you want to go to the casino, you would say yes, how long till you get here, our reply was, we are outside your house. We would be so happy when you would come out of your house. It would only take you a few minutes and we would all say, the gang is here let’s go! Those were some of my favorite times together. I can go and on. But, we only have so many characters to work with.
Thank you my friend for always being there for me. I will miss you, it will not be the same without you! Your friend always! Josie
