I am so sorry to hear about Daisy passing. I remember her from special Olympics and I knew her Mom Helen and her Sister Bess. I send virtual hugs for all.
I went to WalMart last night and all I could do was think of Daisy. I would always bring food to Daisy. Usually some meal of choice and then fruity tea, sugarless hot chocolate or cookies. When I would go to Wal Mart, I always asked myself , "What does Daisy need?"
I pass her street to take my son to his girlfriends house and it seems so strange she is not there. Every time I would check my calendar, I would try to figure out when I could go see her and it was never enough!
I miss Daisy. We had some fun times. She had to correct me when we were doing puzzles. Most of it was conversation. Lots of conversation with laughter.
I still owe her a zoo trip. We went to go when I still had my huge van. We dropped my daughter and littles off and then went to find a place to part. Zoo full. Shuttle full. It was recommended park at the Max station and take Max. My van was too big to pull into the parking structure. We finally gave up; picked up the others and went to OMSI. Not near as much fun as the zoo but my current car is not big enough to take everyone so I still owe Daisy a zoo trip. You can be sure next time I go, I will be thinking of Daisy the whole time.
Jackie, do you know what her favorite zoo animal was?
I'm not sure if I can make it to the service or not. Condolences to all who knew Daisy. She is missed.
