friends

A friend is someone who understands your past, believes in your future,
and accepts you just the way you are.

Of all the things which wisdom provides to make life entirely happy,
much the greatest is the possession of friendship.

You are always my friend

when I am happy or sad

when I am alone or with people

if I talk to you today

or in a year

You are always my friend

and through the years

we will change, but it

doesn't matter what we do

Throughout our lifetime

you are always my friend

Myrtle Beach 70s

Dan & grandkids at his place in DC during a visit for his 5oth BD
party. Was it ever
grand - a 3 day event!

The grandchildren shortened the name
Grandfather Dan" to "Father Dan"!

Dan has been like a brother to me and father to my children over the many years and now is a proud grandfather to this ever-expanding family.

You'll always be my friend, you know too much.

We met at church in the 70s, were neighbors in the 80s,
and in the 90. We've gone through a great deal together. We have managed to maintain our extended-family friendship even with the great distances separating us.

A good friend is like a warm quilt
wrapped around the heart

Special friends become our chosen family

The harmony between friends is sweeter than any choir

Sometimes a library of words can't say what a hug from a friend can

The touch of a good friend can be healing

There's enough warmth in a friends hug to warm up the coldest day

Old friends are the best antiques

Jerry & Laurie	their daughter Ashley (in 1994)
Laurie ismy daughter's best friend and has been since they in both of their teen years and she has always been loved & regarded as "my other daughter".

Friends give their best and the best comes back to them

Friends forever right from the start - caring and sharing from the heart!

A friend is someone who knows our faults, yet find our virtues too
Old friends are the best antiques
Time may pass and we may part - but true friends stay close at heart!

New friends are silver but old are gold!

Friendship Keeps Our Hearts in Touch

Love puts a twinkle in your eye and a smile in your heart

May you live as long as you want - and never want as long as you live

I have three kinds of friends: those who love me, those who pay no attention to ,

and those who detest me.
