One of my best friends just called and told me that her mother passed away unexpectedly in the middle of the night. I'm still in shock. Her mother was a wonderful, vivacious, completely loving and caring person, and utterly without rancor. She was hilarious and funny and spry. She was one of those people who just seems permanently young at heart.

When I was on my huge trip of doom last year I stayed with them, and it was Easter time, and her mother made me a little Easter basket for Easter morning, and even though I was about as far away from home as I could get, I was home there, too.

Sometimes when I called I would talk to her on the phone, and she was always so funny and sweet, and I was so very much looking forward to seeing her again next year when I go to CA.

I'm just so heartbroken for my friend. They were like peas in a pod, and I just can't imagine how awful this feels. I am sitting here crying because it's so sad, and thinking that it's a drop in the bucket compared to my friend's loss.
