    Darlene,

    I will miss you. You had a very unique disposition.

    You were truthful, highly spirited, and you were one that could give your opinion, or advise, and give it in a way that would not be offensive to anyone. Not to many people have that quality.

    When I was introduced to you (about 30 years ago) you immediately made me feel as if I had already known you. It was your smile, your loving nature, your warmth.

    I feel honored that I was able to have met someone as special as you.

    I love you,

    Kay
