I don’t know if “D”, that’s what I always called her, Ever knew what she meant to me and how much I counted on her and her friendship. My husband and I went camping with her and George. We also have two of our grandchildren with us. The kids were 3 and 4 years old at the time. We had a good time together. I Love “D” like a sister. Time, circumstances, and health problems had prohibited us from getting together. I highly will forever regret that time I missed with her. George, Love you my friend, and Jody and I are here if you need anything. I Love you “D”, forever.
George so sorry to hear about Deloris. She was a kind soul that was fun to be with. May god cover you with peace and grace till you meet again on the other side. Love and prayers
