		<description><![CDATA[Hey Scott!!!

You have a wonderful way with words…  I think my favorite line is, “If you know Steve, you know about Kari.”  We’ve been a package-deal for over eight and a half years, though I didn’t know about her for the first few…  When someone thinks about me, I want them to automatically think about Kari.

Thank you for making our story one of those in your powerful series of videos – I’m honored to be a part.  It means so much to me to tell the world about Kari – and you helped me do that in a way that will last a very long time.

I’ve had so many people who have read my thoughts on Revive Hope and Transplant Buddies, but have never seen me, or heard me talk about my feelings.  You made that happen and I’m so very grateful…  And thanks for thinking I do an amazing job honoring Kari.  I think about her always.

Love,

Steve]]></description>
