Christy, I will never ever forget the last few weeks I stayed with you at night. Those were so precious to me. I will miss you so so much. No trip will ever be the same without you. But I know you will be with me in spirit. To say you were my Best Friend is an understatement. You were my life, my joy, my everything. I love you and until we meet again.â¤â¤
