Loss of a Friend

WHERE ARE WE? Rivers Provincial Park, Rivers Manitoba

Today we had one thing on our minds.  The celebration of life for our friend Jill White who passed away very suddenly a few weeks ago.  The day was about remembering Jill, but more so to show her husband Cam and their family that they have a huge support network that will be there for them as they carry on without her.  

Cam and Jill and their family have been friends of ours for a number of years but our friendship has changed over the years because of our lifestyle change.  Because we travel in the winter and also because we bought Cj's which keeps us extremely busy in the summer, the amount of time we spent together has certainly diminished.  Our deep down inside friendship didn't diminish, but our day to day contact certainly was limited by those factors.  Although we love the RV lifestyle, it certainly changes your life and your interaction with even close friends.  So today was a little sad for us knowing that although we loved and appreciated both Cam and Jill as awesome friends, we know that our ability to spend time with Jill has now come to an end.  She will certainly be in our thoughts often and so many things will remind us of her and make us smile.  We have gone through all the shoulda, coulda, woulda scenarios in our minds, but that doesn't fix anything in this situation.  Bottom line is we will miss her smile and awesome laugh immensely and we hope we can be "a little more often" friend to Cam.  He has a huge hole in his heart right now.  Rest easy Jill!!!
