What a beautiful woman and friend, I will miss her laugh. I remember playing red herring at our friend Eric’s house and she got confused. She showed me her fish card and I realized her confusion and burst out laughing. When she realized, she started laughing and we laughed together until we cried. She was such a genuinely beautiful person that everybody loved her. I’m grateful that I had her in my life, and she is gone way too soon. My heart goes out to Stan, her family and friends. But I know we’ll all meet up again at that big table in the sky to play Tenzi once again
