So sorry to hear about the loss of such a wonderful friend and mentor Leanne. I think one of the benefits of aging is you begin to cherish even more those friends that touch our lives in a variety of meaningful ways. However as you pointed out, the loss of these extraordinary friends and relationships occurs more in later years making the loss all the more painful.

I agree Leanne. Losing beloved friends and family, to me, is one of the hardest parts of getting older. 💔
