| FRIENDS |
| This page is in memory of a very special friend. She departed this life and has gone to meet her Maker Melony was a very special person. She was a friend that couldn't hold a grudge. We would sometimes go a couple of months without talking, and then call one another on the phone and talk like we had talked yesterday, sometimes talking for hours. She was always there for my daughters and I. She was also a wonderful mother and an animal lover. I always called her over-protective, but really I was jealous of the way she raised her kids. They are sweet girls. Melony was due her first grandchild in the middle of July. Sadly, Melony never got a chance to hold her grandson. When he was born I went to see him in the hospital. Oh, that hurt so bad because when you look at him, you can also see his grandma. When he was born he made these little sounds like he was trying to talk, I told his mom that he was talking to his grandma in heaven. He is such a sweet boy, just like grandma was. I am also doing this page for another reason. I want to tell everyone something from my heart. I didn't seem to have the time for my best friend. I was always TOO BUSY, or TOO TIRED, or something would always stop me from getting there. You see, Melony wasn't able to get around much, she lived on oxygen and her lungs hurt quiet a bit. She was a really great talker and even greater listener. I always thought to myself, if I go there I will never get away. Always some excuse. I always told her that I loved her. I remember so well the first time I told her, she started bawling. Crying so hard I couldn't understand what she was saying. You know what she was trying to tell me through the sobs? These are her exact words to me, "Darlene, Nobody has ever told me they love me" and cried even harder. I loved her so much, yet I feel like I failed her because I wasnt there for her like she was for me. Melony went into the hospital almost a month before she passed away. I wasn't there. Now I think about her all the time and cry because I miss her so much. Sometimes I catch myself picking up the telephone to call her, and then realize that I've waited too late. Now, I have only pictures to remind me of the friend that I lost. People, if you have friends that mean anything at all to you, PLEASE don't wait too late. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Tell your friends how much they mean to you. Go spend lots of time with them. Too much time is far better than no time at all. Believe me, I found out the hard way. And also remember this, you dont have to be old to die. Melony was just 39 yrs old. I Love You Melony, and I pray for your forgivness for not being there for you like you were for me. We will always miss you. But you will be in my heart forever. HUGSSSSSSSS |
