Christine and I were babies together, grew up right across the street from each other, shared our secrets together, boy talk, family talk, etc. We were so excited when our parents allowed us at 13 to take a bus trip together to 13th Avenue! How grown up we felt! We called each other sister friends. From the start of Chrstine's illness journey, she told me she wanted to have grace and dignity in dealing with what was ahead. She most certainly did. We spoke like clockwork, every single week, about everything and anything. We laughed, we cried, we confided; everything that sister friends do. Christine took a piece of my heart with her, and she in turn, will always be in my heart. We ended each conversation saying, "Love You Chris, Love you too Celeste". I will always hear and keep her words with me, "Live in the Moment Celeste" May our Lord bless you Christine, and hold you in the palm of his hand! I love you! Your sister friend, Celeste.
