I just really can't come to terms that such a spirit and such a big hearted person has passed. I only worked with her a few years but her help and knowledge is something that will be a part of me forever. We kept in touch ... Maybe not as much as we could have. What a force that will be missing and making an impact on so many people she helped and loved. Love you Tree, from Dee
