Jan. 6; In Memory of Lara

 
 
Lara Vaarre (left) and Nancy Davis are lovely young friends from Cascades dragon boat team.
Lara passed away on Dec. 26, after a spirited fight with cancer.
Today, we celebrated her all-too-short life, with champagne and strawberry short cake.
Lara packed more living into her 42 years, than most of us do in a life time.
She was a generous, caring, funny, spirited, adventurous woman;
a paddler, SCUBA diver, a chocolatier and a friend. I will miss her.

The team photo shows Lara, front and centre, and myself, behind and left of Lara.

  1. Ah, Pegs, I'm so sorry about your friend Lara. So young, so beautiful, so tragic.
