I often think of my old friend Maria.You would love being nosie on Facebook and no dought be the E Bay queen.I wish you could have seen my two beauitfull children grow,I cant believe my Rose-anna is 16 soon.So nice to see Jack and Billy Boy friends( two little mushes )OMG Maria if only you could see Baby Joseph Ripley .His handson, so much like his dad.Its brings back memories of when we use to visit Ria when John and Joseph were young.I know you would fuss over him like you did when Jack was a baby.Im friends with Linda Marie on FB such a nice girl.It seems like yesterday when we took your little sister Linda to Madam Thausards on her birthday.She makes feel so tired just reading about her keep fit classes LOL.Time passes so quickly but I do have some lovely memories to hold onto.Miss you Maria x
