So very sad to hear of your loss. I loved her sense of commitment to family and her flare for style. I only met her a few times but admired her timeless elegance, and her kind soul. I also know she raised two amazing daughters, a true testament to her life’s love and work. Thinking of your whole family during this difficult time.
