I send my condolences to the Widger family. Kaye was a long time Army buddy that I shared 3 assignments with. She was the kind of friend that everyone should have who would do anything for you. She was the only person I know who liked the color orange. I'll never forget the 30K volksmarch we did in Europe in 3 countries in 3 days. I will treasure all the memories. Rest in peace and God Bless you.
