God puts people in your life for a reason, a purpose, a need that He sees. One of the stops down the road of life, lead me to you. You became a very special, dear, close friend and confidant and stood steadfast by me during some tough times, encouraging me through it all. The thankfulness, gratefulness, and blessing to have known you and call you my best friend. I will cherish our friendship forever. A best friend is one of life’s wonderful blessings and gifts from God.
