DEAR ABBY: My friends of many years and I are planning a special beach trip to celebrate a friendship that began in the late '50s in elementary school.
We are big fans of yours and would like to know if you have any words about friendship that you could share with us. It would be an honor and a thrill to hear from you. -– THE YA-YAS
DEAR YA-YAS: Friendship is a gift to be cherished. The way to have a good friend is to BE one!
