    Dear Julia, Sharon and Edna:

    So sorry I can’t be there with all of you. My thoughts are with you today. I will miss my dear, sweet sister. She had a magnetic personality and a contagious laugh like no other. I will always treasure our two weeks together in 2018. So happy we have those memories.
