Wow...I don't even know what to think. I always thought I'd have more time to reconnect with Ally, who was a close friend when we were in school. I feel a huge sense of regret for not just making the trip and visiting with her. She was SO amazing!!! I had so many "firsts" with Ally, like watching the Rocky Horror Picture Show, and crying over the movie "An American Tale". During our French class in High School, we would pass notes constantly. The notes were meant to be private, so I learned to write backwawrds, which made her laugh hysterically......in the middle of class. When I got married during out senior year she told me, "You ruined it all you dork...now you gotta do the whole Mommy-Wifey thing!" She was one of the few people who understood why I had to grow up and take care of things when I moved away. She never judged me, or anyone else...I miss her more than ever now.##imported-begin##Nancy (Lawrence) Osborne##imported-end##
