She loved traveling, frequenting trips with her children to Mexico and the coast, she also enjoyed garden- ing and flowers. She will be very much missed but her family is comforted by the fact that she is no longer in pain and hopes she has found peace on a big sailboat pushed by warm breezes on tur- quoise waters.
