Not sure what to say?

Hedy was one of a kind. I haven't seen her since we graduated from nursing school at Berkshire Community College where we became really close and good friends. What a loving caring person. Our lives became busy and we lost track of each other, but I continued to think of her from time to time with great fondness. Rest, Hedy, you left the world with so much love and caring from many people.

I remember Hedy when she grew up in Port Chester. She clearly led an examplary life. I was born 5 years after her. John Way.

Dearest Aunt Hedy... God takes the good ones first. What a loss to my family. Always knew her. Always kindness from her.

Despite the travel, she drove all the way to partake in my wedding 14yrs ago.

I know she's joined the light at the end of the tunnel... but damn it, what a tremendous gap now exists in the world.

Always thinking of you,
Charles Majors [cousin]

Her deep compassion, intelligence and ready smile as well as a willingness to really care for others above herself made her a stand out woman to be admired. The world will be less with her passing. Such an inspiration.

Her show of strength was inspirational. Her smile was heart felt. Her tales compassionate. Her home welcoming. As one put it perfectly... an amazing power house. ❤

This photo was taken on a visit to Hedy in her Bisbee, Arizona home. She was a gracious and generous hostess who took great delight in this community which she and Kim had discovered together. I will always enjoy remembering her there and the joy she exuded during that visit.

No one in my life has given me more peace than Hedy. I will always remember her gentle assuring nature and compassion. My heart is with her family.
