Our good friend K passed away this weekend. 

She had been fighting against cancer for more than five years now.  But while her death is no surprise, it's still a tragedy, and it still hurts.  All weekend we've been remembering the things about her that made us smile.  Some of them have sneaked up when we least expected - in the middle of a conversation about something unrelated, someone says something that triggers a memory of K.  We found pictures of her taken at our wedding.  We've been weepy. 

K's funeral is Tuesday, and we are collecting our tears and funny stories to share with K's family and other friends who loved her.  We will always miss her.
