It's Memorial Day which should be the best day of the year having a bbq and going swimming. I miss you so much Meryl 

I'll see you soon... I so miss you how can my life go on without you? 

I met Meryl online via Facebook.  We instantly became friends while playing (as it pains me to say!) blackjack in the Double Down Casino room (an app on Facebook).  Our first introduction was after the dealer dealt the cards.  Meryl piped up through the chatline and said, "Oy!"  I immediately thought, "Uh-oh....she was dealt a bad hand so I returned the gesture and replied, "Vey!"  Quickly, Meryl chatted to Ellyn and said, "Did you see that sister?"  "Roxanne just said, "Vey!"  Simultaneously  Meryl and Ellyn asked me if I was Jewish.  I replied, "No, however, my mother's husband is and I know a lot of the Jewish jargon so beware you two!"  I had to smile because they both, once again responded with an "Oy."  I loved these two sisters instantly and thus became Facebook friends.  It then became a ritual, we would meet up in the "casino room" not just to play cards but to talk and laugh with one another.  I can honestly say I never once saw Meryl without Ellyn and vice versa.  These Sista's (as I called them) rocked my world with their fun-loving personalities and zest for life.  Thank you, Meryl and Ellyn for being a part of my life.  Although we have never met in person I feel as if I have always known you.  Fly high, sweet angel, Meryl.  You will forever be missed by all who knew and loved you.  God Bless this beautiful family.  Peace and Blessings!

I have known Meryl since she was 14 years old. She was my sister in law... before she got married I considered her my sister and even after she was married I still thought of her as my sister... I remember when she went on a trip to Trails West for camp... She wrote me so many letters telling me of the good times she was having going cross country. We had such great times going to concerts to see her favorite bands... Too many to list... great times... She will be in my heart forever ... 

This beautiful soul was my Twinsky.  We met thru mutual friends online on Facebook. Instantly we recognized commonalities in this journey we call life. How parallel our lives have been. It was so much that she nicknamed us Twinsky’s.  I loved that and love her so much.  We have laughed, shared life experiences, shared advice, cared for one another’s well being, and oh so many things we liked were the same. Once I learned she liked birds... one may fly by or I see one in a photo... Boom! There’s my Twinsky ❤️  May the family have many blessings and know that We shall meet her again... light n love to you All ✌️
