Although I only knew you for a short time I loved you when I first met you. Your interest in spiders was cool. You were a fighter and that's what inspires me most. Dorri was an amazing friend, well my grandma, she and my grandpa are. John, I am incredibly sorry for your loss, its hard, and always will be, shes not in pain anymore and that's what counts.

And John,I'm so, so sorry, I know this is going to be hard for you especially and all of her family and close friends. May God Bless You All!
