I love you Sister “Maggie” and I will see you again someday … it was so “awesome” to spend time with you before you left, and you wanted to eat “Indian Taco” and I made it for you and Tony, Leroy Brady Jr… this time was so precious to me, you will always be a part of my heart and remember the “good memories’ as we grew up together….
