Kari and Don were two of finest individuals I have ever known; I met them both through their professions and cherished their friendship. I hope there is fairness in the Universe that we mortals cannot see, as that little family has earned it several times over.
I send love to Anna and confidently say there will be no time I don't remember Kari with great affection, and hear her hearty laugh.
