    Connie,
    My dear friend, one of my best and closest. I am here for you. You guys are and have been my “chosen family”. In addition to our friendship, it has been both fulfilling and a privilege to be entrusted with PA’s medical needs i.e., appointments, medications, tests, his, as needed, caregiver. I will miss PA’s companionship, being his “legs”, personal assistant, whatever could make his life easier.
    Please allow me, in turn, to make your life easier. After your 39 years together, our friendship that has spanned decades, PA’s death has left a great void.
