Sister's, sister's there were never such devoted sister's.......

It is with a very sad heart that I have to accept the fact that my sister Barbara is moving to Delaware.
I moved to Oregon in 1989 when I came out here and went to Linfield. Barb was at Univeristy of Colorado in Boulder at that time, we talked almost every day by pay phone (before the time when everyone had cell phones, honestly don't know how we survived).
About 15 years ago she moved to Oregon with her then boyfriend and my nephew...it was nice to finally have family here. Barb and I have been through alot together, she helped me through bad relationships and gave me a place to live, and most recently helped me the most when I was going through my divorce.
My ex was horrible, he spent most of the time while I was working sleeping, that meant my daughter had to basically take care of her self while I was away (she wasn't even 3)...I couldn't take it so I asked for help. Barb stepped up, she took Molly every weekend, for 8-9 hours while I worked and picked her up almost everyday from day care until I got home, I really do not know what I would have done without here.
In the last couple of years Barb met someone else whom she fell in love with and married. He is a really great guy and has been really good for her. Well, he got a new job in Pennsylvania, close enough to Delaware, so that is where they are moving.
I cannot even talk about, yet alone write about her moving with out crying. I really do not know what I would have done with out her over the last several years.
She said that if I still needed her this decision would have been more difficult, but because I have found my happiness and do not need her anymore, she can move on.

I will miss you more that you know Barb....I love you.
