My beautiful Sheryl - what an honor it has been to love you, laugh with you, and walk beside you through so much of your life. You were my dear friend, my teacher, and my family. Your sparkle, your silliness, your stubborn spirit, and your enormous heart made every moment with you unforgettable. I will miss your laugh, your stories, and the way you made everything - and everyone - better just by being you. Rest easy now, my sweet friend. I´ll carry you with me always. - Karen
