Tragedy

I just found out that someone I knew through work was on the plane that crashed in Buffalo, NY back in February. Her name was Mary.

Mary was a sales rep for a company my company works with in our industry. We had met on several occasions at tradeshows, etc... I did not know her very well but we connected instantly. She was very fun and exciting to talk to - had previously served in the army and had been to Iraq. She was always smiling, full of energy and very dedicated to her job.

We last saw each other in December at a tradeshow. She had told me that next time she was in Syracuse we should get together and go eat BBQ at the famous Dinosaur BBQ. I was looking forward to it.
