Dear Friends-
This is one
of the hardest emails I have ever had to write. I am so sad to let you
all know that Keith Jensen passed away quietly this morning after a long battle
with Brain Cancer. He fought hard for 3.5 years and inspired us all with
his positive attitude and fearless approach to fighting it back.
We will miss
his big smiles. We will miss his ability to make us laugh. We will
miss his ability to bring us all together in tough times. But, we are
grateful for the time we were able to spend with him and for the privilege to
call him friend. We will miss him but we will never forget him.
Please take a
moment to reach out to your friends & family members and be thankful for
your time with them.
I will
forward additional information as soon as it is available.
Few words can convey what a ball of energy, laughter, silliness and above all love our dear manager, mentor, and friend Keith possessed. He was the definition of joy and love. To say he will be missed is a gross understatement. He will live on in the hearts of many, many, manymanymanymanymanymany, for years to come.
Whenever....and I seriously mean WHENEVER Keith and I saw each other in the office, he would immediately belt out this song:
I'm talking the kitchen. His office. Meetings. Christmas parties. Hallways. He had the neatest ability to ensure everyone he surrounded himself with knew how special they were.
I've said it before, but I'll say it again. Take some time today to forget fights. To forget irritations and frustrations Forget any wrong doings that you've done, or have been done to you. Forget annoyances. Today is a day for love. For living. For being thankful of the people in your life, and the ability to read this blog post.
We love you, Keith.
