:( I hadn't heard about this, I don't watch or read the news often, not as often as I should, but it is so depressing to me. After reading your poem, I googled her and read an article. It is a huge loss, when someone with such a huge heart, so much compassion, someone who helps so many people, is taken from this world. Very sad. Such a sweet tribute, Stephen.
