[NFBWATlk] hard to write this

[Kris]

Lauren,

I am so very sorry to hear this. I have many good memories of you and that Nfb Of Washington.Your laughter during our conventions always made me smile. I loved hearing about your kitties and all of their antics. Thank you for having the courage to share with us. You are in our thoughts and prayers.
