Today, my friends, is a day of reflections and memories for me, because it was four years ago today that my very dear friend, Doreen, passed away after a short illness. It seemed that one minute she was with us and the next, she was gone.
We always went walking together, or shopping, or just to a coffee shop for a cappuccino and a toasted teacake. We always had plenty to chat about, even though we saw so much of each other, and I always felt that she really looked out for me.
We also used to take holidays together. Only a few months before she passed away, we went to Dubrovnik together and had such a lovely time. Doreen was on top form and looked so well. It just goes to show that no-one knows what is round the corner and we really should try to make the most of each and every day.

for your friends 'til they are dead.
Do not write them on their tombstones
Speak them rather now instead."
