"She left a letter to be read today." The pastor said I looked up. Surely this is were she says it was all my fault and that I should have been there for him.

To my dearest friend,
First this is not a suicide not. I am going to kill my self today, but this is just a letter to an old friend. I miss you so much. It has been what a year now. You are my best friend, always have been, always will be. I wish I could see you again. I am so sorry. I have failed you. I'm not a fighter like you or like my dad, I'm not brave. I can't take it anymore. You made me promise to remember you. I have I will always remember you. I couldn't not remember you, you were always there for me. You also asked that I keep your memory alive. I have failed at that. How can I keep your memory alive when I am not alive my self. I'm so sorry please forgive me. After my fathers death I wanted to do this but I didn't because of you. But then you left. I have been close to this for a longtime. I can't take it any more. So my dear friend I love you like a sister. You are my best friend and always will be. Right through the end and beyond. Gosh I am so dramatic. Remember you always used to call me that. I miss you. I can t say that enough. So you see this is not a suicide note but a letter to my friend.
I die today, on the same day that y best friend died last year. She died of leukemia after fighting it for two years. I have some things that I would like to be done if possible. First please invite all of my classmates to my funeral. It is not because I wish to guilt them in any way. But I feel that they might want to come, and if someone in the class is going through what I went through then know as much as I may sound like a hypocrite, don't do it. Secondly please read this letter at my funeral. Third please bury me with my father, in the same cemetery at least. And lastly please set this letter on my best friends grave, He name is Jane Rose Calvin. She is buried in the same cemetery as my dad.
Sincerely,
Wilona Elleen Centenary"
