I've been contemplating all day on what to say here!! For how does one say good-bye to such a special child-hood friend!! The last time I saw you we were laughing bout the ol times n our crazy shenanigans, and lord knows we had some big ones you n I......lmao!! Shhhh!!! Who knew that would be the last time!! This all happened so fast,and you were already critical by the time I got the news! I pray that you forgive me my ol friend for not being there to hold your hand!! And again today for your ceremony as I was ill !! I was very upset that I could not be there!!! I feel like I let ya down twice! I know you fought hard but it was just too much to bear!! Why do we always take time for granted!! We get so caught up in our lives, work etc... that we put aside what we shouldn't! And then something like this happens and wham your searching for the rewind button but the time has come and gone! One of your last txt to me ...you said we should get together more often and laugh and talk about the old times n memories before they begin to fade!! Those memories are some of my best and most happiest and i will never let them fade!! You were loved by many kandi, I hope you know that!! Ok well I love you and goodbye for now my ol friend....I will find you again one day!! Stacy lou!!

So sad to hear of the passing of Kandi. Although we were cousins and only one grade apart, we did not know each other very well. My prayers for strength through this time of grieving are with Paul and Ethan. God bless!

I will miss my dear friend, we have been friends for almost 50 years. When we were young,we spent alot of nights at each other's house on the weekends and Summertime, it was always fun to go to her house during football season because her brothers were the stars of the team back then and their house would be all decorated. She was always fun to be around and always made me laugh.
