我的至友Anna,
我們由種菜群組認識,很快便成為朋友,由日常的瑣碎事,到人生大事生活重擔,都會通個電話發洩一下,互相支持。
感激你在我媽媽生病的時候給我很多鼓勵和安慰。感激你在我女兒手術之後每天要打薄血針時,你教懂我如何做得妥當,後來還以Anna’s Institute of Advanced Nursing Practice 的名義頒給我一份堂堂皇皇的畢業證書。除了你,試問誰會這麼細心又大愛。
很享受我們一起去柏林看黃耀明演唱會,逛博物館、見朋友、吃喝玩樂。喜歡在你的生日和節日寄給你賀卡或小禮物,因為你收到之後必定會致電稱讚我十五分鐘,你就是這麼可愛。
永遠懷念你的溫柔的聲線、甜絲絲的笑容、慢半拍的節奏⋯⋯多謝你這麼善良的人選擇我做你的朋友。
Dear Anna
We knew each other in your gardening group and quickly became close friends. Whether it was everyday trivialities or the heavy burdens of life, we would always call each other to vent and support one another.
I am so deeply grateful for the encouragement and comfort you gave me when my mom was sick. When my daughter had her surgery and needed daily injections. You patiently taught me how to do it properly, and later even awarded me a graduation certificate in the name of Anna’s Institute of Advanced Nursing Practice. Who else but you could be so thoughtful and sweet.
I will always cherish our trip to Berlin , we went to Anthony Wong's concert, visited museums, met friends, traveled around and found fun spots.
I loved sending you cards and little gifts for your birthdays and holidays, because you would always call me afterward to praise me for a solid fifteen minutes.
I will forever miss your gentle voice, your sweet smile, and your easygoing pace of living. Thank you, such a kind and beautiful soul, for choosing me to be your friend.
Deeply missing you,
Tammy Hartmann
