Not sure what to say?

Our darling Cara, will never be forgotten. I worked with her at Steelcase for several years and ended up as a friend after we both retired. She was so loving and forgiving, such an angel! I´m just glad to have ever had her in my life, I can´t say anymore than I remember her and will never forget her. She was a love! Lois Carey.

My sincere and deepest sympathies to my old friends and neighbors in the loss of "mom". Mitt

Shea was a Wonderful Sweet Lady and will be missed!!

She´s not gone. Her spirit is as vibrant and brilliant as ever. Kira is the most warm, welcoming, loving, forgiving person I´ve ever known.

I first met Kira as a coworker in the international department of Steelcase Inc about 40 years ago. She was always a delight, and after we retired, she joined a group of other, retired executive secretaries for a once a month luncheon together, which still continues through this year. She was always a loving, honest, delightful woman, caring, and genuine in all that she undertook. She will be greatly missed, but never forgotten.

I never had the good fortune of getting to meet Kira. I'm just someone who stumbled upon this beautifully written obituary. I want to extend my sincerest condolences to her loved ones and say that, goodness, I really wish I'd met this wonderful human being.

Kira was a delight to have a conversation with, and her smile enveloped you. May her memory bring great peace to your family.
