RIP sweet lady. It was a pleasure always to work with you, especially at the games. The Athletic Department was blessed to have you. The teams. teachers, coaches were your family. You were always kind, helpful and funny. She loved her family unconditionally and was proud of them. Nitaya, you were the shining light in her life. Her face lit up whenever she spoke of you. RIP sweet lady. You made me smile always..

Nitaya and family,
I am sorry for the loss of your beloved grandmother Gigi. She is an angel now with wings and a halo. She will come to you in a fond memory, a warm feeling, or in something someone says. Celebrate her life, she wouldn't want you to be sad. Cherish those feelings and she will always be with you. She was a great lady and will be sorely missed by all.
