Thoughts & Prayers

Today one of my closest friends, Jen Spencer Sneider, lost her mom.

Less than a year ago, Gail was diagnosed with kidney cancer that quickly spread to her lungs, lymph nodes, etc.

Only in her mid-50's, she had so much life to live and quickly made the most of it through connecting and spending as much time as possible with family and friends. I was lucky to be included in that group.

I visited her in her apartment, at the hospital and at Jen and Dave's house multiple times where she spent her final 1-1/2 months, and treasured getting to know her better, providing opportunties for her to laugh and to share our lives.

Please keep Jen, Dave and Sydney, her younger brother/sister, and their family in your thoughts.
