Terry & family,

My sincerest condolences. Kari was my youngest cousin on our mother's side and although I was in high school in Arizona when she was born and we did not grow up together like I did with her siblings, I know how much she was loved by her parents & siblings. May peace enter your heart and with every gentle breeze that touches your face, may you be reminded of her love for you. She fought a good fight & as a breast cancer survivor myself, I know the strength & courage she found to go the distance until God carried her home to be with our grandparents until she can be reunited again with you.
