My Dear Friend Linda, We only met yesterday, or so it seems, could it really have been so long ago? (At WPCC, in 1977). Working together at Broughton. Laughing. Van rides with the patients. I will miss your laughter and friendship, your ole timey sayings. You no longer must lug around that oxygen tank. You are free. I will miss you and our talks. Love you. "Kimmie" ♥️
