She was a beacon that shined brightly during joyous times of her life. Her love for this world was at times quiet and hidden, but for those who understood her best, understood her light. She adored music and danced in her heart and mind. It was her beautiful escape. A survivor of adversity, she conquered with her beautiful smile. Memories of joyous times and love for her soul will always continue, a fighter to the end, she showed love so eloquently and brilliant.
