God be with you, family and friends. Your loss is heartbreaking to the whole community, and certainly that much more for those who knew her. Keep sharing the stories of her precious life, and keep her memory alive forever.

Not a good idea to put all of the bank info online like you did. Now scammers can hack the account!!
