In loving memory of my dear friend, Barb VanHouten, who went to be with her beloved Lord and other family members who passed away before her, on November 5, 2009. I don’t know where the past 11 years have gone, but I miss you more than ever, dear Barb. I visit your grave and look at your beautiful face and I weep. You were such a joy to be around, and I could share everything and anything with you. No judgement, just unconditional love. The way friends should be. I miss our shopping trips, our birthday celebrations, our chats on the phone, our everything. Rest easy, my sweet Barbarino.

Your friend, Robin
