I'm so sorry for your loss. I wish our paths had crossed differently and I was able to know her in her healthy lifetime. She sounds like she was an amazing woman. I saw it reflected in her family also. She did leave behind a legacy in all of you who were a constant advocate and support for her. She often crosses my thoughts.
