Anne and I became friends about 8-9th grade. We quickly enjoyed being with eachother even though she was a year older than myself. We would spend many weekends hanging out together and spending the night at eachother's houses. Her family always treated me as if I were just another one of their children. Max always had a great sense of humor and loved to give me hard time. Ben, her brother, liked to call me (still does sometimes) "Bo"linda. He just knew how much it aggravated me at the time and now it is just a great memory of how they all loved me and I loved them. I remembered Toni's Pimento Cheese and Max's Pecan Tassies. They took me on vacation with them, introduced me to some Bluegrass music, always ate some great meals together.I could go on and on about the adventures together.
Anne and I went and led our separate lives, but always kept in touch. Anytime we would see eachother it was as if nothing had ever changed. I want to say Thanks Anne, for letting me be a part of your life.
I wished that I had dug out some old pictures to put up on my blog. All of I have hand are some recent photos. I am so Thankful that I was able to see Toni in July when she was doing well.
Here is picture of Anne with her mom
Beautiful Toni..

Toni, We will miss you greatly.
