I first met Shari when I was six and moved next door to her.  We started off as neighbors, became friends and I can even say that I considered her to be my best friend.  She had always been such a special friend that when I had my first child, I knew that Shari had to be godmother to my son and I was so happy when she agreed.  It’s not often that you meet a fine and such a good person in one’s lifetime, but when Shari considered you a friend you knew that it was special.  Good-bye my friend, I will never forget you and it was a privilege and blessing to have known you.  Thank you for being my friend.
