To fill in the blanks even more...Just before she passed away, she had become ill with the flu. She seemed to be getting over it but then she found herself unable to breathe regularly. She was admitted into the hospital and diagnosed with a bad case of pneumonia. Within 36 hours or so, she was gone. It was very quick and left a huge hole in the hearts of those who loved her.

She was like a sister to me and I feel privileged to have known her. Those who are on Facebook or anyone who has been touched by her can come together online. Her FB page is still active and is being monitored by her daughter Samantha. Please send a message to her and request to be a friend. Your kind thoughts are very welcome.
