Sunnypoint Drive

I lived next door to Robin and her family on Sunnypoint Dr.  We shared the same connected house.  It was really cool, because each house's bathroom was separated by a wall, and when we were in our bathrooms at the same time we could hear when the other side was changing their toilet roll (the holder was the old ceramic style ones on the wall that made a clicking sound when you inserted the roll holder.  When we were very young we used to bang on the wall that separated our homes, trying to made our own little morse code, lol.

Robin and I were great friends from the time we were 4 or so right up until high school, as we both went to Meadowbrook P.S.  We walked to school and home all the time, and played together a lot.

We reconnected through Facebook a few years ago, but never really talked that much until recently when I found out Robin was sick.  I spent the past month or so playing games on Facebook with Robin, and it felt really good as we used to play games on my front porch when we were young.  I was trying to work up to asking if Robin wanted to get together for tea or something, and now found out she has passed on.

I feel horrible that I will never have the chance to see her and tell her how much her friendship meant to me.
