Remembering Kara

This morning was our friend Kara's memorial service, who crossed over on January 10, 2014 after a courageous yet short battle with cancer.
Kara was one of the first people to open her heart, arms and home to us when we moved to Texas. I will never forget that.
Over the years, she has become a source of great inspiration, joy, love, and a wonderful friend.
Katharine spent many days and nights at the Cleckler house, as well as Charlotte at our house. Kara's daughter Charlotte is one of Katharine's closest friends. Our hearts and doors will always be open for Charlotte.
Kara left a mark in this world, she made a difference in many lives. She made a difference in our lives.
In the future, there will be no Kara bringing the girls over, or opening her front door for Katharine. Those drop offs and pick ups were something I looked forward to as much as Katharine, because it meant I got to see my friend, even for a short moment. But what will be there, is the memory of her smile, and the promise, that Katharine and Charlotte will keep having many wonderful days together.

Kara, I love you, hon. You rock, and love is the answer!






Meghan, thank you for taking these wonderful pictures today, and for being there.
