Another lost friend

February marked the end of a 23 year friendship with one of the greatest ladies I have ever known. We met a month after my move to Florida in '89. We worked together for only a very short period of time, but the friendship remained in place. She stood by me when a bad marriage went really south and was happy when a new partner was by my side. She shared my grief when he was lost to me after what seemed like a very short 18 years. And now, she is gone also. No more trips to St. Pete window shopping and spending hours wandering through book stores - a passion we shared. I think of her often and smile remembering the good times we shared. Rest in peace my friend..........
