Yesterday certainly did not turn out the way any of us expected. Yesterday we lost the light of the country. It has been like losing a member of our own family. She has always been part of our lives for so many of us. Always with such a beautiful smile. I've seen some beautiful words written in memorial of her. These from my sister "A lady who was loved and respected by many passed today. A daughter, wife, grandmother and great grandmother. She lived her life in the public eye, may she now rest in peace with her beloved, knowing she did her duty, and many would say more.

Rest peacefully now, and thank you."
