I only met you once when you came to visit us for that brief time in Atlanta. It was great meeting my husband's "little" sister and we promised to see each other again, but never did on this plane. However, I was happy for the time we were able to spend together. Rest well, dear sister-in-law; indeed, we will meet again someday.
