My dearest Karen! Oh what a character you were! You never failed to make me and all those around you smile, laugh and feel just so happy! On my first day on 54 you greeted me with the warmest of smiles and cheery self! Since then our friendship just grew and grew! We’d sneak away from our offices to come and chat about anything and everything! I loved sitting with you just talking and laughing! You were my safest space! My bestest person! You always looked out for me and were there with the biggest of cuddles on dark days reminding me how light the tunnel could be! For that, I am and will forever be grateful! Your stories and rants when you’d end with “wank stain” my dear Kaz you absolutely cracked us up! Our coffee club with Sam! Our trio of friends! Always something to look forward to! Hazelnut latte’s and cake! Us laughing when Sam baked a banana bread and left full bananas in! We laughed so hard! You gave him baking lessons and we braved the next batch! You wernt a big drinker but found the Sqn punch a great beverage! The stories of the nativity play! I will never stop laughing! You absolute legend! God Mrs C, I could go on and on! You were my person! I loved you and will always love you! You were a big sister/second mother! I miss you more than words can say! You will forever be in my heart! My dearest lady, sleep tight and fly high! Heaven has gained an angel!! Love you always and forever xxxxx
