Friday the 13th, 1989 is when we lost you. Today, Friday the 13th, 23 years later, here we are again remembering you. Sister, I have never forgotten you. Your family and friends have never forgotten you. This is the day of the year that I struggle the most. I cry because I miss you but I smile more because so many people remember you. On this day I hear from so many people who I know, that knew you and they share something about you, but, sometimes I hear from a stranger who has never forgotten you either and shares a memory. I look forward to those moments. I love you and miss you.
