One of my first impressions of Bryanna and the passion with which she lived her life came one day in the 1980s when I got a call from a couple of terrified young reporters in Crystal River begging me to come up and keep her from killing an editor. I chided them for overreacting, but they persisted. (When I got there, I discovered that they weren't far from being right.)

Dear Friends and Family,
As many of you know, 11 years ago I lost one of my best friends to breast cancer. Bryanna Latoof was one of the most wonderful people I’ve ever known, and her death was a heartbreaking loss to me, her friends and her family.
After many years of thinking that I ought to do something to honor her memory, I decided this spring to actually do it. So, in October, I am going to participate in the Avon Walk for Breast Cancer in Charlotte, N.C., walking 39 miles over two days. I’ve already started training.
(I also want to honor those in my life who are breast cancer survivors. This includes my mother-in-law as well as aunts, cousins and friends.)
I’m asking you to support me in this effort – my goal is to raise at least $1,800. I know it’s a hard time to ask people for money. But one of the things I like about the Avon Foundation’s efforts is that in addition to funding medical research, it also is committed to improving access to treatment and support services for women (and men) with breast cancer. This includes 100 public hospitals that provide care for the uninsured and underinsured as well as more than 1,000 grants to community-based programs.
This means that your dollars will help the people who need it most.
To donate to this cause and support my efforts, please click on the link at the bottom of this message to make a donation online. (You can also read more about Bryanna there.)
If you are my Facebook friend, you also can donate there, or you can mail a check made out to “Avon Walk for Breast Cancer” directly to me at 1405 N. Mangum St., Durham, N.C., 27701.
Your gift will be appreciated more than I can possibly tell you.
Sally

Dear Bree,
Another two leave,
Families berieve,
Attempting to retrieve,
In what they believe,
While trying to conceive,
How death does deceive,
With little alieve,
And a lot of peeve.

Hey Bree,
Just like every other day and moment in time, I am thinking about you. I guess you know we are moving. You would love our new home. I can't wait. I haven't been wild about the politics where we live, so I'm glad to move on.

Bryanna, my daughter, was always a compassionate person. She, her husband, and two children were staying with me and her father while seeking a home to buy or rent. They had recently moved from Lakeland, Florida to Louisiana. The housing market was unexpectedly tight and there seemed to be nothing available. One realtor even said there wasn't a chicken house to rent or buy in the area where her husband's new job was located.
