Harriet was a special friend with whom I spent many Thursdays with our” foursome”.
We knew we were going to have fun, and all of Birthdays were in the month of September.
My hope and prayer is that she is finally resting in peace. I will always remember Harriet and
the fun times we had. God bless you and rest in peace, my friend!
Always remembered,
Sarah
