Linda, my heart has hurt since I heard about sweet Heather. I have so many memories of her and can still see those curly dog ears she wore when she was just a little girl. I always loved seeing her when you use to come up to see Mamaw and Opie she took over Justin just like a little mother which let me get some things done. I know how much you hurting...know my heart is with you and you need any thing let me know. I love you Liz

Our hearts beat a sad song today. Heather was personally responsible for so much happiness. So much love poured out of one person. Duane & I will always be grateful to her, for introducing us, for loving us & for being our friend. Without heather, there would be no us. If for no other reason, that alone would be enough for us to always love, always celebrate & always find hope in the legacy that she left us. We will miss her & that beautiful smile.
