Laverna Simpson Crim
Dorothy, or D.J. as I called her, and I became friends in a Sunday School
class at the age of 7, or 78 years ago.
It is difficult to lose such a close friend after all these years even
though we lived a great distance apart most
of these years.   We knew each other so well that sometimes we could
finish each others sentences!  And we 
giggled a lot,  even in our old age. It did get us in trouble sometimes
in our young church classes!  I have had
many friends during my lifetime, but never a relationship like we have
had.  I appreciated the fact that her 
service was at Mountain View.  One time when we visited her, we walked up
to a corner & could see Mt.
Rainier, so I know she enjoyed it's beauty.  We both loved music &
started singing together for fun and
for church,duet, trios, girls quartet.  Now, she's in a Heavenly choir. 
I'm so thankful for our wonderful 
friendship and will greatly miss her.  With my love to her sweet family,
LaVerna (Simpson) Crim
