Raising A Glass, Toasting A Sweet Friend

Just a little post raising my glass to my dear friend Judi who passed away this past Sunday from a short, tough battle with Lung Cancer.  Judi was from New Jersey, and she was probably one of the finest ladies I have had the pleasure of knowing..I never met Judi in ‘real life’, Judi was an online friend but a friend all the same!
In a few days I am going to write a little bit about online friendships, I think they are so special they deserve their own post, tonight is a toast to Judi and a celebration of her life..Her viewing is tonight, and funeral mass tomorrow.  How I wish I could be there to celebrate her life in person, but I can’t so will celebrate the only way I know how, ONLINE!
God Speed, sweet Judi!

  5. You know I've wondered about this - having so many real friends - via blogs and emails - and when we lose someone.

    I am so sorry you lost such a good friend. I am glad she is free of cancer. Hopefully in Heaven!
