Hello Mimi. Karin here. I am so, so sorry about Chris. There could be five or zero customers in the 302, and he would know I was there. I hope it wasn't mouth haha. Chris always put a smile on my face and I am glad to have known him.
I'll have to come visit when all this crazy is over. I hope to make it Monday morning. It will be crowded I'm afraid. I love you. I will be in touch somehow. 5672046320 is where to find me. A text is best until I get you in my phone. Take...
