Mary Kaifesh was one of the very best people that I have ever met. My mother and her went for lunch every Sunday for the past 2 - 3 years and would always come back with stories of their adventures. She was one of those people you feel lucky to have met. My deepest, heartfelt sympathy goes out to her family and many, many friends.

Sunset at Sedar Bay is such a beautiful picture! We all mourn the loss of special loved ones ... The picture reminds me of this:
"Life's beginning is like a sunrise ...
Its ending is like a sunset."
Sincere sympathy to all that have faced this experience recently. May your precious memories be a comfort to you!
