    Feeling sad. Cathy Madden was my best Friend from elementary school at Oak Grove Thru high school, & many years after high school. She was my Maid of honor at my wedding. I will cherish the many memories. I will think of her often when I am going thru the handwritten notes we passed each other in school. Yes, I still have them! Even though our lives took us in different directions, she will still remains my bff & I shall never forget her.
