Linda Conklin has been my best friend for many years. I’ve never “crowded” her but we have always been there for each other.

Her husband (and my good friend), Wayne, died May 25th. I thought she’d decided to stay here. I knew she was considering moving to Mexico or to Michigan, but I hoped she’d realize that I need her and so do others. (She’s very active at the Emergency Squad.) But Thursday, just a three days ago, she let me know she will put her place up for sale NEXT WEEK. She’s already contracted a condo in Midland, Michigan.

I think she was keeping it from me so I wouldn’t try to change her mind.

Actually I understand her reasoning and support her.

While she’s moving, she’ll be staying with me. I’m glad to be able to be with her.
