Honor

Wednesday night I lost a friend. One of the ladies in our bowling league went home, and I will miss her greatly. She was quite a woman, 88 years old, fighting her second bout of cancer, and still bowling every week. I could see the fatigue in her chemo-altered face, but she was never one to complain. "I've had a good run." she would always say.
Luella "Frenchie" LaValley, you were an inspiration to me, rest well my friend.
