I barely remember meeting Julie now cause so much time has passed since she even spoke to me. She & I hung out together in the town of Dryden way back in the day(s). They were unique in that we literally had no idea how much time we had in life to even be together as friends. Sadly we grew apart in the yrs to come. Since she married it grew very difficult to find any time to get together. I had no idea that she was as sick as she was. I do briefly recall Kystal her daughter. I remember just a tiny bit of Jeremy her son. Wonder how old they both are today? Wishing you all a happy life even though your mom isn’t here anymore. Congratulations Kystal on becoming a grandmother yourself! Your mom would be incredibly proud of you! And wow! Does time ever fly by/away! It’s basically evaporates! Gotta use the time you have to the very best of your ability! May Almighty God watch over you Krystal. Would be interested in connecting with you someday if you’re willing as well. We can share memories about your dear mom. Don’t know how to find you through! 🤷♀️ - Posted by: Barb (Was once a friend. ) on: Feb 29, 2024
