Evonne came to me interested in a bird I had. From that point on, she was in my heart, and I believe I was in hers. Life didn’t allow me to be able to be a constant in her life, and it breaks my heart. My health has been horrible, so I am not able to do the things that I would like to, let alone, what’s important to me. I was recovering from surgery and not able to attend her memorial service. I know she knows the love I have for her, and she let me know that she loved me. She was so nonjudgmental and always gave more than she had. She never asked for anything and she was such a strong woman. I pray for just an ounce of the strength she had.
Evonne, you are in my heart forever and I am looking forward to when we reunite on the other side. My mom and dad will love you , I’m sure you will meet them. Please give a hug and take a hug for me. Love you forever.
