9172016My dearest sister -

Yesterday was your 51st birthday. You didn't know I was trying to make plans for us to take a train ride to Traverse City the week of October 3rd to celebrate both our birthdays. You also didn't know that I thought you were the smartest and most talented person I knew because I never told you. I think you knew that I'd always be there for you but you probably didn't know how very much I loved you. Growing up, next to mom, you were the most important person in my life. I wish I had told you this before now but I didn't expect you to leave me so soon. I thought we had at least another 35 years together. I hope somehow you know how much I love you and miss you.Happy Birthday Nancy!

I Will Always Love You,
Heidi
