You know its funny...You don.t appriciate someone ( my sister) until she is gone gone forever!! I will always cherish the memories we had together sista... However small or large we always had a bond that will last forever.We may have had long spells of of no contact but bthe bond was always there..I believe you and I were always bonded by a close connection that was real and maybe unspoken but always alive!! I love you Patti and always have..I am soooo sad and cry often that you left us way before you should have! Your deams were not fullfilled but yet you died with sooo much dignity!! I will always remenmber the great times we had together and often think and look back at the times when we were so young when you protected me from the outside world that I had yet to experince! Its these memories that I cherish and will never forget that you did for me!! I miss you sooooooo much and wish I could have just 5 minutes more to hear your voice or have lunch at Cracker Barrel in Oxford.Its not fair you are gone to leave us behind so early and when you were soo happy in your life.
