Remembering a friend

We got word on Thanksgiving weekend that Charlotte a friend and schoolmate had been killed in an accident near her home. She was raised here in our little community where they were good friends with the Cook's. They moved from here but they continued to go to school with us and we graduated from high school together. We enjoyed many activities together and just recently we celebrated our 40th class reunion and we got to see and visit with her and her husband, another of our schoolmates. It was a reality check for both of us. We thought we were too young to die, now we know that our time here could be shorter than we thought. Who knows, but we are thankful for our lives that were touched for good because of Char and Dean.
