I love my friends! The stages of friends from childhood through adulthood. I truly treasure each of them. I have lost so many of them this past year and throughout my life to death. I hate death. I know it has to happen, but when life is cut too short and for unnecessary reasons it just makes me sad.
I lost a dear friend Joe this past week. We worked together at Albertsons in Phoenix for 13 years. My friends from Albertson's are so dear to me. They were my family for so many years. I grew to love each of them, their wives and kids. I miss them soooo....much! I had many emotions the past two days. I was so happy to see them that it made me cry and I was so sad at the reason I was seeing them it made me cry. I went to Phoenix for the funeral. Tuesday night I attended the viewing and was blessed to be there to support Lisa and the kids and to see so many of my dear friends. It was comforting and I am glad for the closure it brought me. Wednesday I attended the funeral service with full military honors. It was my first (with the military honors) and very touching. That afternoon was nice visiting with friends and Joe's family. 
Rest in peace Joe and best of luck to Lisa and the kids. I love you!
