Mimi,
Words can not describe how I feel about your untimely death. You were such a joy to be around. Working together was the best experience. Thank you for all of the laughs, the good times, dinners, coming over, all of it. I pray for peace and healing for your family in this difficult time. Laura, sweet girl, I am so very sorry! Love you, my friend!

Mimi was an amazing soul and will be missed. She was able to find joy in the present moment which I think was her superpower. I am sending much love and comfort to her friends and family as we lost one of the great ones.

Although I did not know Mimi outside of work, I was fortunate to have lunch with Mimi on two occasions and found her to be an exceptional person. Mimi accepted a position on our team, that was new to the organization. She was so successful; we replicated her position in many other cities across the country resulting in the promotion of dozens of individuals that never met Mimi. Mimi constantly helped others as they moved into similar roles. Countless times during conference calls, someone would say "Call Mimi" when we didn't know how to get something done. Mimi always had the answer. That said, the thing I will remember most about Mimi is her warm smile. Please accept my most heartfelt condolences on the loss of Mimi.
