A Ray of Sunshine.

Eva is also one of a kind.  She is one of the most genuine person I have ever met.  Our paths crossed very randomly.  We were both visiting a friend in the hospital here in ABQ but I hadn't actually moved here yet from Phx.  It was the weekend of Fourth of July 2008 and as we were leaving the hospital she invited me to her BBQ at her house that weekend.  We hadn't even known each other for 30 mins before she was inviting me into her home.  We had a few random acquaintances but I was still shocked that she was so willing to include me!  Unfortunately, I didn't go. I chickened out :)  But later on she invited me to a dinner with her other friend (this was the dinner at Outback where I met Katy... so basically Eva introduced me to Katy!)  

Eva and I then stayed in touch as I was coming back and forth to ABQ from Phx for a few months before I actually moved back.  As soon as the move was official I became the third wheel to her new relationship with her now fiance John.  We always joke about me being the third wheel but that's exactly what I was :)  We all had such a great time with each other! 

Eva was a great find when I first moved here.  She introduced me to a lot of quality people.  Eva truly has a heart of gold.  She is altruistic, selfless, and just a bundle of joy to have around.  In my phone I have little picture icons by people's names that describes the person... and Evas' is a bright yellow shinning sun.  That's what I think of when I think of Eva.  She really brightens up rooms when she is present and puts smiles on people faces when they meet her.
