Dearest Robin,
We were neighbors in Costa Rica, probably I was 8 or 9 Many times my parents and I talked about your family with fond memories.
You and I had a matching outfit and there is a photo somewhere…
Facebook came along and I searched for your parents because I knew you might not have the same last name. I found your Mom and Dad, May their memory be a blessing. We corresponded a few times in 2010-2011 and they told me they were coming to Palm Springs and we made a date. I drove from LA to see them, catch up with stories and bring old memories back. Your parents were so happy to see me as I was to see them. They told me stories about my parents that I never knew and we had fun.
Before sunset we said goodbye.
I will always remember them, they have a very special place in my heart.
My condolences to the family and friends.
