This page, although not fancy, expresses my true feeling for my oldest and dearest friend, Clem. She is always there when I need her and knows when to call just to say hello. I try to return the favor but always seem to fall a little short of her dedication to our friendship. Thanks, Clem for being there all of these years. I love you!!
A friend is one to whom we may pour out the contents of our
hearts, chaff and grain together, knowing the gentlest of hands
will sift it... keep what is worth keeping and with the breath
of kindness, throw the rest away.

After all of these years, just old friends.
Through the laughter and tears, old friends.
What a find! What a priceless treasure!
Old friends like a rare piece of gold
Old friends make it great to grow old:
Til then through it all I will hold to old friends.
Oh God must have known
There'd be days on our own
We would lose our will to go on
That's why He sent friends like you along
Old friends yes you've always been there.
My old friend: we've had more than our share
Old friends I'm a rich millionaire in an old friend.
A phone call, a letter, a pat on the back
Or a "Hey I just dropped by to say..."
A hand when I'm down
A loan when I just couldn't pay:
A song or a story a rose on the INTERNET
A note that you happened to send
Out of the blue just to tell me that you're still my friend...
We've been through some tough times
When we didn't know whether we'd even have one thin dime
But that didn't change you:
And when we were big winners
And everything seemed to be finally going my way
You just cheered me on so glad to be able to say...
Old friends yes you've always been there
Old friends we've had more than our share
Old friends I'm a rich millionaire in an old friend

I may not have the answers
to the questions you will face.
I may not be the one to drive away your fear.
My list of imperfections is too long to erase.
But, you have my word, I will be here.
Lord, I know sometimes it seems
there's not much I can do.
I'm not a hero or a name.
But I'm a house upon a rock
when I rely on You,
a constant friend
whose promise will not change.
Count on me
in this world of shifting sand.
when you need a steady hand.
I will work and pray,
mean what I say,
and live unselfishly.
Right the wrong.
Standing strong;
You can count on me.
