They had many laughs together.Kiki had an incredible desire for knowledge and understanding and was always exploring the internet, books and newspapers. One of the people she admired most was Albert E. Einstein and his quoted words: "There are only two ways to live your live. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle."She was funny, smart, gregarious, generous and exceptionally loving. She exercised daily, attended ceramics regularly, loved going out to lunch or dinner and had become an exceptionally skilled knitter.
