Life has been enriched by community, friends

I have lived in the Sandpoint area for 15 years. I lost my best friend and partner in 2008, quite suddenly. My health has turned not so good. I’ve decided to move to the West Coast to be near family, my support group.

I want to thank the many, many friends I have had the years I’ve lived in Sandpoint. Thank you for the good times and sharing with support during the not-so-good times. My life was enriched by the love and friendship you all shared with me. I wish you all rich and fulfilling lives. I love you all.
