What makes a long lasting friendship? The answers are many and varied but I do know that I am grateful for my friendships that have stood the test of time and distance and life changes. Linda and Ken are wonderful friends who are there if you need them and when lots of time passes between visits we catch up like it was only yesterday. Linda retires this spring and is starting a new chapter and I am thrilled for her. She has been there for me in large and small ways and I will be forever grateful.
I feel like I have known Keith and Julie forever. Keith and I started out as pen pals more than 50 years ago and we have stayed in touch throughout all of my moves (although he did say that it was easy because I just kept sending them those Christmas cards). Life is not the same because Parkinsons challenges everything but his spirit is the same and we love visiting with them. BTW the beaches in Naples are simply beautiful!
