I just watched...I am so saddened to hear this news. I just watched a news story on TV and I am just hearing about this tragedy now for the first time. When I heard the name announced in the story as Lenami, I instantly thought, "NO".<br /><br />I had the pleasure of knowing Lenami closer towards my leaving the BC Secretariat of the 2010 Olympics. <br /><br />So though I only was getting to know her for a short amount of time. What I did come to know was precisely what everyone is saying about Lenami. She was sweet, and pleasant and to be frank...quite refreshing in contrast to much of the nonesense that went on in our office.<br /><br />She seemed to me to know a secret to contentness which she carried in her demeanor and she reflected this outwardly by being a calm natured, path focused young lady.<br /><br />When she would talk to me about the challenges of securing her residence in Vancouver and how her family in Mexico was dealing with her plans being so far away, I imagined how much they must miss her but also how proud they must be of their strong willed daughter.<br /><br />My sincerest thoughts and empathy goes out to her friends and family. I'm happy she and I crossed paths and had I stuck around, would have hopefully had the priveledge get to know her more. <br /><br />Thank you Lenami for being only you,<br />RIP and please keep an eye out for us... especially those nature loving thrill seekers like you. Help us to remember to be safe.<br /><br />With love,<br />Stephanie.pepehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15211808185057320809noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6466423.post-83028117672900709642012-05-03T02:37:10.144-07:002012-05-03T02:37:10.144-07:00Hello Stu,

We were bound and determined to find her before dark and thankfully we did. I and my flying friends are grief stricken that this lovely and obviously treasured human being should lose her life this way. We are all stepping back right now and re-examining our procedures and equipment so that nothing like this ever happens again.

Such is the effect of one life that touched so many others. <br /><br />Lisa, regarding your comment on a memorial, I think the facebook page linked above is probably the best resource for that sort of news, but I'll certainly re-post it here when it shows up.Stu Chasehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12312041945248368734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6466423.post-28691860855843825542012-04-30T13:05:58.469-07:002012-04-30T13:05:58.469-07:00These are lovely word for a beautiful human being....These are lovely word for a beautiful human being...lenami was my friend since junior high and she was always smiling ...

We did all we could to find her as soon as we could, all hoping beyond hope that there might be a slim chance for her... I think that unifying in that effort helped us cope with the situation, however when it was over, a wave of sadness and shock took over. We are all reeling from this loss, wondering how it ever happened.

Constantly surprising us with photos from his latest/current adventure. I once lived in fear of what he may attempt next and then he said, Mom if something ever happened to me you should know that I was in the middle of living life to the fullest in that moment! I can't be afraid for him anymore, I wish I could be as brave as he is and truly live life in the moment!! I think very few are that brave and they are who they are because they seek to enjoy their lives to the fullest. I hope that her friends and family can celebrate the life this young woman had and I would like to think that today she can soar anywhere in the heavenly realm.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6466423.post-71731905418945131152012-04-30T11:49:38.196-07:002012-04-30T11:49:38.196-07:00All you have to do is look at her photo.

In the time she was here, you saw the staff blossom. She was kind, patient, intelligent and committed to real, positive change. I would say more but my mind is overwhelmed by the shock of losing such a wonderful human being. She is a real loss to all of us. Anyone who exemplifies such humane qualities ... God bless Lenami.
