Today at the Celebration of GiGi´s life, during the Sermon given by Eric, he mentioned that "she had a way of making everyone that came to an event feel as though she was so happy they were there and that they were family" I don´t know that I´ve ever felt "home" with a stranger more then the second I met GiGI and from there on after. She made me feel loved and I loved her dearly from then on after. The life she led, with such grace and adventure. In the moment but with purpose. I hope I can come close to the long, story-filled, love-filled life she has led. Cheers to you GiGi!

I will miss our talks almost daily about all the things. I will miss your love and support in everything. You were always my best cheerleader and my confidant. Miss you forever.
