Somehow all six of us managed to be free on the same evening. We raised a glass to our dear friend Yvonne, who passed away in April. She never missed a Ladies Night and hosted many of them at her home.

We miss her joy.

We chose the Float House for our last gathering. We sat on the covered patio and celebrated another summer at the lake. We watched the sunset.

One of us became a grandmother for the first time. Another just completed months of chemo. One of us has recently found the second love of her life.

We’ve all survived something. Celebrated. Laughed. Confided. We passed on the special Warrior necklace to Cindy.
