I am so saddened to hear of the loss of a truly awesome lady who will be missed by so many. She truly was always fun, caring, loving and just great to be around. I will miss her generous friendship and my heart breaks for Art and her family who will be missing a true treasure. Wishing the family peace and fond memories as they navigate this new world they live in.
