“My last memory was having lunch and she said, ‘Let’s go on an adventure,'” “Bling Empire” star Kevin Kreider told People in a statement on June 5. “My regret is that I didn’t step into her car and go with her with my girlfriend and Maria. It’s a lesson to smell the roses and take a moment. That day, I was so bombarded by work and pressures that I didn’t get to have that last adventure with her.”
“I took it for granted and believed I’d have plenty more of these and would save it for another day,” he added. “The adventures could be just having coffee, but knowing Anna, it’s never just coffee. It’s shopping, lunches and dinners, and even last minute traveling.” He also said he’ll miss “her laugh, the way she played the piano, and I’ll miss her no-rules-driving-on-the-road.”
He also shared a tribute to Shay on Instagram. “You never know when your last goodbye will be,” he wrote in the caption. “So unexpected and wished when I saw you last for lunch I would have taken a moment to smell the roses and had one last adventure with you.”
