Dana- Thank you for being such a real, genuine, person. You lived fully and worked harder than everyone else. I know we will all miss you more than words can express. I find relief that your daughters will carry your indomitable spirit into the world so that this whole world will be touched by that unique spark you brought to everyone.
When I think about you, I smile and laugh; and my heart is broken knowing the loss your family must feel. You are amazing and one of a kind. Thank you for all the good you shared with us in AZ.
