A surprise at work

In Jared's first week at Precoa, back in August of 2009, Chris Giovarelli put "Aunt Viv" on Jared's desk with the story that it was the urn given to him when he first started with Precoa. She stayed with him through the first months he was there to help Chris be comfortable entering the funeral industry. "Aunt Viv" was next given to the next new employee, Jana, a few weeks later. For the next 7.5 years, "Aunt Viv" greeted most new employees in the company. The story was her remains were in there, but for a long time, it was known by many that there was a pop can and some cereal inside.

But... in all that time, no one had ever opened up the urn. Until Motoko! She decided we needed to pop her open. Lo and behold, the can of sprite and cereal - and a note from Chris to me! It welcomed me to Precoa and gave a little back story of "Aunt Viv," Chris's "favorite aunt.

Who knew!?! After all these years - a note from Chris! What a fun surprise!
