Happy Memorial Day

By Xoxoxoe
I usually post a photo of my dad or another family member who served our country — and there are some wonderful shots in my flickr photo album, Soldier Boys and Girls.
But today I am thinking of someone else I lost on Memorial Day, four year ago — my beautiful cousin Ann. She was smart and talented and funny, and not just family, but my dearest friend. She is why I moved to Washington, D.C.  Twice. I know she is always with me, but some days, like today, I really miss her voice.
