Dear Friend Cheyenne,

You were so much more than a co-worker to us. As an employee you were reliable, dependable, and always willing to do the jobs no one else was willing to do. But you were not just a co-worker; you were our friend.

You carried an energy with you that was undeniably contagious, just like your smile. Who knew it was even possible to have a permanent smile? You were creative, energetic, and most definitely the life of the party. Some would say that unique experiences followed you, but it was you that made those experiences unique. To our beloved colleague and friend, you are going to be missed more than you will ever know and we cherish the memories we have of you.

Love,

Your Fairmont Family
