Amber, you and I have many great memories going back to when we were 13. You were my first and only friend for a time at the prep academy. You taught me all about the beauty of classic stars and classic movies and music and antique things. After I got done at college, when we reconnected, we had many long talks about life and we helped each other through some tough seasons. You were the only one who had time to celebrate my 29th birthday with me, in Orlando. Even my husband was busy that day. I'm glad that even though I live 160 miles from where you were, we still had a good friendship. I'm sorry I hadn't reached out to you since October of last year. I should have. I like to imagine that you're up in heaven, wearing a pink 50's style dress and meeting your favorite historical celebrities like Marilyn Monroe and Audrey Hepburn. I remember you talked about them a lot in high school. May you rest in peace.
