Watch over us

Life goes on, very differently indeed!  It will take time for us to digest Karine's death, and time to fill the void and rebuild.  It still hits us as surreal, and we not have really taken in the grasp of what her disappearance means.  Karen and Fred worked together very closely this past winter. They shared ideas, worked on projects and had planed to do things together in the future.  The exchange took place in the mountains, on a chair lift or cable car, during a road trip or while having a fresh fruit cocktail after a hard days's work.  To keep this news a little "happy", Fred remembers that they drove into a snow bank on the Col du Lauteret, as they were both absorbed in their inspection of the couloirs that they could ride.

 
Karine...

Ton énergie, ta joie de vivre et ton sourire vont nous manquer. Ta passion pour la glisse nous a fait partager un bout de chemin ensemble. Plus qu'une compagne de travail, c'est une compagne de récréation que nous perdons. C'est toujours avec enthousiasme que tu répondais aux propositions d'aller vivre une aventure, c'est avec autant de passion mais sans se prendre au sérieux, pourtant tu aurais pu, que nous partions glisser hors des pôles d'attractions. Ta plus grosse crainte était les crevasses et voila qu'une d'entre elles plus gourmande que les autres n'a pas résisté à t'avaler. C'est un grand vide que tu nous laisses. Ta chute en pleine ascension est d'une violence inouïe. Les anges vont gagner une compagne de valeur et je suis certain que tu trouveras des lignes démentes (comme tu disais) à glisser dans les nuages. Tu as un temps d'avance sur nous, profite de ces nouveaux lieux, tu resteras à jamais dans nos coeurs.

Adieu Karine...Quoi dire à un moment tel que celui-ci...je voie ton visage souriant, heureux, plein de vie...one of your motos was "live life to its fullest" and there is no doubt that this you certainly did.  For now I say adieu, but not good bye!  My heart goes out to all those who love and care about you.
