Two days ago I stopped by a golf course to check out the reception area a bride is using in two weeks that I've been hired for. When I walked in the receptionist was on the phone and I had to wait for her to finish her conversation. I was taken aback when I realized how much she looked like my friend Julie who died last spring. Same eyes, eyebrows, color hair, similar facial features. She could have been Julie's sister (if she'd had one).
It set me into a spin of sadness.
It's been hard to let go.

Losing someone you care about, especially someone like Julie I'm sure is very difficult. I didnt even know her personally but she affected me as well through hearing you talk about her and listening to her song. She was such a neat person, someone to be emulated. I'm so sorry its been a source of sadness for you my friend. I know you miss her.

Oh Jen. That must have been really hard for you. I have a friend who passed away a few years back and I still *see* him all the time. It's hard. *hugs*
