These pictures show the two sides of Darlene Goetz; Daddy's little girl on her Confirmation Day, and the tomboy I knew!

Darlene only got to be 11; my friend's tomboy older sister. But she was my friend too, even though she was a girl. I was only 10, and hadn't yet come to comprehend the full meaning of death. Maybe that's why I've somehow always felt close to Darlene. I've even dreamed of her as the young woman she never had a chance to become. Whatever comes next, I feel I'll see her again.
