I, too, missed receiving her Christmas card this year which was always the first to arrive. I will always remember her in the British Airways waiting area at Dulles Airport where she was wearing a smart suit and a tremendous gold sovereign coin as a pendant. Very different than the other image I have of her wearing yellow short-shorts when she provided housekeeping services for me. She loved Las Vegas, and we would share stories about visiting there. She, and her cards, will be missed.
