She was a kind-hearted, generous, caring individual; one would be far pressed to find a rival to her good spirited nature and benevolence. She always had an optimistic approach to life and would go the extra mile to lend a helping hand. Her heart was gigantic and her work ethic was unmatched. She was one of a kind person and she will be truly missed.,
