We met in High School. We trained as Registered Nurses together. We laughed and had so much fun. You were a Bridesmaid at my wedding. You were my first- born's first visitor in Hobart. Despite us both moving around the country for work and life, we kept in touch and remained good friends. You will never be forgotten. A special friend taken too soon. RIP Chris x
