I lost a friend ( Paula Melvin ) that Ive known for 20 years. She passed away on Satuday 9-1-2018 due to a heart valve blockage.She was like a mother to me, when I used to live with her and her husband. Ive been calling her husband daily to check on him in this time of loss. We used to attend the same church, and I enjoyed interacting with their children-who are all grown now. I have also experience the recent loss of another friend that I had known for 20 years, her name was Donna Bell...both from Enid, Oklahoma. Last year I lost a friend to suicide as well, so this is a very difficult time with the passing of Paula, and remembering all my other friends who have passed on. I have such an empty void. I used to chat with Paula all the time on facebook, and actually called 9-11 for her when she alerted me of her heart condition on facebook because she couldnt get to her phone. So I did all I could do. Every so often I will see her name pop up on facebook, but know that shes not there anymore, and it breaks my heart. She always used to call me "onery" -the title which fits me the best. Thankyou Paula for the good times.....I know you're in heaven with the angels looking down.
