Not sure what to say?

She was so brilliant. We were classmates at U of W
Social Work
She made life seem bigger.
Her love of Alaska was infectious.

I am sadly learning of Kiki's passing today, we had lost touch through time and distance. Kiki was everything to me and many others. I had the honor of working with her in Alaska where she worked as a social worker. So often, the staff and I would say, let's wait till Kiki gets here and see what she thinks!

I'm sorry for your families loss at this time and want to thank you for the opportunity to share a message from the HOLY SCRIPTURES found at Roman's 15:4,5...that gives us hope and confidence in GOD'S WORD also at ISIAH 25:8 Thank You sincerely WHM. ORLANDO FL

Cynthia,
I am so sorry for your loss. Losing a parent is one of the hardest losses we go through in life. It is a group that we do not yet want to belong to.

When I was a little girl I was intimidated by Kiki. Was it because of her booming voice or that she was my big sister's best friend. Another fond memory is our trip to Minchumina and the stories we shared at the Carey cabin. Then of course the many Christmas holiday gatherings! You will always be part of my life Kiki Carey. Love you.

I sat with Kiki in the back row of Professor Gordon's Spanish class at the university in Fairbanks in the early seventies. I remember her as friendly and exuberant.

RIP Kiki. So glad it turned out well. Thanks from those of us who knew her for the loan of your mom, Mary. She did great things.
