Heather and I used to work side by side in the medical world, for about 10 years, back in the 1990s. Quite by accident, we were both golfing together this summer at Tuxedo, and she reached out to me for a conversation at lunchtime after the game. It was lovely to see her and reconnect after 20 years. Such a pleasant rendezvous with a lovely woman, friend and co-worker. So I was very saddened to see her familiar image and that she had passed. I extend to Heather’s family my heartfelt condolences . Catherine Lee - Posted by: Catherine Lee (Friend) on: Nov 15, 2023
