    I am at a loss for words sis, I wanna wake up in the morning and hopefully it is a dream. Kessa Dawn no matter how far in distance we were and no matter the length of time we didn't talk we would pick up and never skip a beat. For the last 30 years we never missed each other's birthday with a phone or a text. There is beauty in this pain knowing you are no longer suffering ✨️ ?
    I will forever miss you sis
