Well this is something that Gail and I have laughed and talked about so many times over the years and this goes back a lot of years, when we were both living at home. Gail lived just up from Hickeys Funeral Home (then it was Morgans Home I think) and I lived just the above the railway crossing in Foxtrap. We would get home from school or whereever and Gail would call. "Going for a walk, I will meet you half way". That was all fine, I would leave right away, I would walk and walk and no Gail in sight. I would get to Hickey's Funeral Home and here she is just leaving her driveway. This would happen 8 out of 1o times that we were suppose to meet half way. I would say "Gail where do you call half way" ? So silly I know, but you know every time in later years when we would mention walks, we would always end up laughing at those good old days.
We have had so many great times and talks. One thing about a true friend, is that you may not talk or be in touch for days and days, but you always know that you can get together and its the good old days back again.
As a friend, it is so difficult to think that there will be no 11:00 at night coffee meets. I would call Gail lots of times after 10 at night and tell her I'm on the way to pick her up to go to Timmy's for Coffee. She would say, my ........ what time in the night is it. I would always say, sure we won't be long. Anyways we had lots of great old conversations sitting in the car for an nour or more.
So sad to see you go but you fought and suffered so much, it is such a blessing that your pain and suffering is no more.
