God bless you, my sister friends. I’ll never forget my second mom – Margie patiently waiting for us to get out of highschool each day in her sporty green Mustang to take us home, her brown beans and cornbread and homemade Postum cake, her throwing a bit of cold water under our covers early mornings after a sleepover to wake us up, and telling us repeatedly, “You can go to hell for lying, the same as you can for stealing.” You know, to this day, I don’t think any of us have ever stolen. I’m truly blessed to have known her. Much love to you both – my thoughts and prayers are with you. Pam
