My dearest friend, how I will miss your visits to Simi Valley and our many drives to Ventura to our favorite restaurant at the beach. Our whole community of fellow Realtors are mourning the loss of you. Even after all this time, they remember your wit, smile, humor and caring way. I am at such a loss right now dear Karen, knowing I
just won't be seeing you for awhile..Love
always, Vicki
