Courtney's Celebration of Life!
Just wanted to share that Courtney's Celebration of
Life event was today, and it was magnificent!!!
There were hundreds of people there /
at Wente Winery in Livermore, Ca.
The weather was incredible and her family
made AMAZING videos showing her
incredible life! It was phenomenal - we
got to see Courtney riding a camel watching
her say, "Even I can't believe I'm riding
a camel to the Pyramids" - as the scene
then shows the Pyramids in Egypt. There
were MANY wonderful clips like that.
Another memorable clip was Courtney and
Jay riding a pink Cadillac into their 5 year
wedding reception being greeted by an
Elvis Impersonator! You get the picture.
I was able to say a few words and shared with
everyone that there are many more Courtney
fans online from her Her2 community that
were also SO glad to have crossed paths
with Courtney.
It was truly a fantastic day!
Hugs,
Kim
