She was kind, smart and loving.
We were so happy and enjoyed being sisters.
She would take me on walks and talk about the leaves, trees and nature.
We had a love of the outdoors.
My sister was intelligent and knew numerous facts about nature
Our family always had a camping trip to celebrate the coming of summer.
We loved camping and camped every weekend.
There was fishing, exploring and hiking.
Although my sister would tire easily she loved every minute of our weekends.
We were so happy on these days as a family.
Now I am glad we have pictures of our times together.
You see she died and today is the anniversary of her death.
Most of my memories come from the pictures and my parents stories.
I will cherish these forever.
