The temporary loss is huge for all who knew and loved you. I hate using the past tense, so I´m going to use the present tense. All of us who know and love you, are saddened too deeply.
I thank God that you are out of pain and able to rest easy now. I thank God and I thank YOU for being the friend you are and always will be. You are zipped in my heart until we meet again to finally laugh and play. I´ll see you when you get there!
Deep Love, KarKar!
