Her kind, gentle, and the generous spirit leaves behind a rich legacy of love and wisdom. She set an example for her children and many others by the way she lived her life. Too many, she was known as a friend, but to her family, she always is remembered as "nanny," who affectionately responded to us all with "yes, dear."
