Well, it doesn't seize to amaze me that you write as effortless as your smile shines upon us all. I couldn't imagine a better trip leader and "Best Day Ever" whore as YOU my friend. Thank you for all that you did and mostly for your presence and all the joy you exudes from your uplifting spirit. Forever grateful for the magic and laughter and warm tears that we shared along the river and for each member of our new tribe. I look forward to many reunions to come! ❤️

Everyone who gets the opportunity to be with you is lucky! So glad you got to share you light with others, and that others could share theirs with you.

Ah, now even more people are blessed to know you and be loved by you. It does not surprise me in the least that you were asked to lead this adventure. What a beautiful treasure you are to all who are lucky enough to meet you and experience your joy 💜
