“Best of Friends are ALWAYS Remembered”

Happy Birthday “Kelly”

Happy Birthday to another dear friend, “Kelly Uzzetta.” Have a lot of friends who are having a birthday all around this time of the year!

“Kelly” was looking for a new home when I first met her. I was a real estate agent at the time and we spent a couple of weeks looking for a nice property, something with some land and lots of rooms for their seven (7) children. We found just the right property and her family moved in, and we had struck up such a good friendship, which was fun for both of us, and our families.

Over the years her children grew up and I was invited to birthdays and then to weddings and to children being born, making “Kelly” a “Grandma!” Also, Mr. Uzzetta was in the construction business and I was in need of having a new “bay window” being installed at my home. Mr. Uzzetta and his son were able to complete this job, perfectly. There were several other jobs we needed and Mr.Uzzetta was able to do these as well and at reasonable rates.

There were times when we had the Uzzettas come over for dinner and we were also to their home just as many or more times. It was just one of those times when you just click into a good long term friendship, and not knowing what the future would have in store our friendship just continued as we all did enjoy many very good years associating!

The time for an unforeseen accident though is something we just could not comprehend. “Kelly” had just come home from work and had dinner with her family, and was going to enjoy a short time watching “TV” when, without any warning and no way in this world to know, what tragedy a complete catastrophe would be happening in just a very few minutes?

Coming down the highway, a driver “drunk” and having been arrested so many times and still had his driver’s license, crossed over the highway, “Highway 30” going up and over another road-way, into the “AIR” and right into “Kelly’s” living room window and “Kelly was there, suiting right there, on the sofa!

Instantly, she was killed. The living room and front entrance to the house, all damaged beyond belief. How could this have happened? The drunk- driver came right between two (2) very large trees, and he, “DRUNK” without a scratch. What a night -mare for my very good friend, “Kelly” and her family. Her funeral followed in a few days. Such a good life, killed by a drunk-driver, who should have been without a license to drive! HE never was punished for his prior arrests, nothing done about his drinking and driving, always driving as he still had to drink???

“Kelly” you may not be here on earth with all of us now, but, you are in a for greater place, and that is in Heaven with our Creator, where we will all be some day and will have more Good Times and FUN, much better than anything here on EARTH. I will never ever forget you. You were and always will be, a most “terrific friend to me!” D.V.
