"She was the most wonderful and loveable sister in law anyone could ever want. She took care of my brother Jody when he went through his cancer. Hers was in remission then. I loved her like a sister. I was saddened when she said her cancer was back and stage 4. She will be greatly missed. I loved her then and still love and miss her now. RIP MY FRIEND. I will see you someday."
