Dear Chris & Carine,
I am inexpressibly sorry and sad to not to have gotten to know you better. What little we did share, I so enjoyed you and was really looking forward to visiting with you in person at our holiday party...
From just a few conversations, I knew Chris was a good man with a benevolent spirit, an unknown friend, someone I was lucky to get to know at all, however limitedly and briefly...
With tears and love and prayers for peace for all,
Kate Pieters, Receptionist, A/A
