What are some good quotes about moving away from your friends?

Question

I am moving back up north(my fiance is in the military) after working at a wonderful job where I made some friends for life. I'm going to send out an email announcing my departure later this month and I would love some examples of quotes that express me having to move but also appreciation for what i'm leaving behind. Any ideas are welcome!

"Of all the things which wisdom provides to make us entirely happy, much the greatest is the possession of friendship." ~Epicurus

"Friends are not only together when they are side by side, even one who is far away... is still in our thoughts." ~Ludwig Van Beethoven

"Friends are the fairytale of life, there were there since once upon a time, and stay til happily ever after."

"Good friends are like stars, you don't always see them, but you know they're always there."

"A friend is someone who knows the song in your heart, and can sing it back to you when you have forgotten the words."

"A friend is someone who walks in when the whole world walks out."

"When it hurts to look back, and your scared to look ahead, you can look beside you, and your best friend will be there."

Answer 2

Your "friends for life" is great.

"Gone but not forgotten" is a favorite of mine.  

So is "make new friends but keep the old. One is silver and the other gold."

Adults understand that people change jobs/locations, etc., especially for love.  Just tell them nicely about your future plans and assure them that you will stay in touch.

Some will, some won't, but always leave a door open.

Good Luck to you
