I only met Maria 3 years ago when we started working together in the Law Dept at TRW in Redondo Beach, CA. She and I bonded quickly since we were both Cancerians (our birthdays were one day apart), both loved to golf and were "neat freaks". I will always remember Maria and thank God for the opportunity to get to know and work with her. To Jeff and Brandi, I wish I could have met you both since she spoke so highly of you - you both gave her so much happiness.
