Forever in my heart.

I met Char Petersen in 1994. Throughout the years we enjoyed our season tickets to the Paramount Theater in Seattle, weekend camping trips to Lake Cushman, day trips to our favorite places and many meals together giggling and getting caught up on each other's lives. We even took a Pacific Coast Cruise together on the Norwegian Jewel in 2007. As her health deteriorated, I would pick her up at her home after work and we'd go out for a bite to eat and just enjoy girl time together. Eventually that had to stop too, and Krissy would make dinner for all of us at their home and we would visit and giggle like we always did. Even in the last months we would talk about when she got better we'd go out again. We were good for each other. I'll miss her always.
