for the love of mr. kagann

farewell mr. kagann. my beloved 2nd dad. i remember days of shopping with you, copious amounts of girl scout cookies in the cupboard {gotta love the tagalongs! i would devour a whole box in a sitting!}, yummy dinners you cooked, helping you with your campaigns, woodridge fairs, and just hanging out. growing up with carol, in your household, led to many adventures and many, many memories i hold so close to the heart. you were such a great part of my life and i will always be thankful for all that you did for me.

being there at the very last moment to be able to say goodbye was surreal, a blur, so clear, overwhelming, unexpected, intense, and complete closure. i love you and i will miss you so dearly.
