Today, July 30th at 1am my best friend and neighbor passed away. She was a believer that everyone has goodness within their hearts. She never judged people and she was in line first if a neighbor or a stranger needed  help. When my husband passed away so quickly, Dana would  sit with me, cry with me, make sure I ate and rested. She was strong in her faith. So tonight I share a little bit of Dana with you ladies. When I went to bed I had no idea Dana would no longer be across the street. You never know what tomorrow will bring. Hold close your family and friends and tell them how special they are to you. Thanking all of you for listening. Blessings to all......


Sheila, I am very sorry to hear of the loss of your best friend and neighbor. This must be a huge shock to you. I so wish I had a neighbor who was a close friend like you describe. The last two years have been rough for me as I have had too many friends and acquaintances die and today I was missing a dear friend. I saw two women walking on my street that I don't know and they hugged each other as they ended their walk. Very sweet and made me really miss my dear friend, now gone 10 months. 

Detachment isn't the absence of love but the ability to take care of yourself in the midst of someone else's choices.

Thank you for your kindness. Dana's husband fell and broke his back. Please keep Lee in your prayers. He is so sad. Dana was his life.
