Thanks to her...

I owe this smiling woman more than I ever could explain...

One lonely night, in a chat room, far, far away... I met a stranger I was later honored to call my bestest!

Friendships aren't always made from 3,000 miles away, but when they are...WATCH OUT!

I loved this woman before I hugged her & had no idea that after that first hug that there was room for more love, but there was!

Michelle and I hit it off and never looked back; plane tickets, costly phone bills, lotsa stamps & almost all the ink msn had to offer were just the beginning. We shared everything, including a middle name ( her first name wasn't Michelle, but she preferred to go by it) & our last names were strangely similar. We'd talk from my sundown to her sun up. We'd sit online & make silly faces and do crazy dances for each other on video-cam...all this even before 'meeting' in person.

Oh the stories and pictures I have to share...I could go on forever and a day about this awesome woman and the friendship we shared, maybe one day I will ( gosh i hope google has a lot of ink!!).

Just thinking about you a lot today Shelley, wanted to say thank you for everything and then some... I miss and love you from here to there with no stops in between!

Very nicely written, my friend...I take it that I've seen her foot at one point, LOL! True friendship can be found over the information superhighway, but just like in the "real" world, it demands honesty and integrity, things I believe you have in abundance. May Michelle's memory be eternal...
