Maria Ilieva
This pictured popped up as a memory on FB from 10 years ago. Suzanne and I met at Lapaz Restaurant where I tended bar on Sundays. She would sit at the bar and we would chat for hours about anything and everything. We hit it off fast and over time became super close friends to the point that she flew to Bulgaria to be in my wedding. So many memories together from traveling together to celebrating birthdays, baby showers, Halloween, Christmas you name it. She had a warm and generous heart. I have so many gifts from her that I will cherish forever. I miss her so so much every day! Fly high “my forever Valentine”! 🫶
