Tributes

I have known AKI not long after she arrived in Vancouver, BC. She became an instant friend. How can you not love her. She was fun, entertaining and very kind. We had many good times and it was a very sad day for me and friends when she decided to go back home to New Zealand. She always missed all of you. You were the the lucky ones to have her back. May God be with her in her new heavenly home.
