Wow, Barbie…. I am so sorry about you leaving this earth. We had a special friendship that will last beyond many lifetimes. I will always have fond memories of the short time we got to know each other. I will always treasure the good times we had when I came to visit. Peace be with you on your new journey. We will, surely, cross paths, again. I love you forever and a day.
Love,
