Poetry and I were co-workers at Access Health, and we became very close during our time working together. She took great pride in being a mother to her little girl, who was the highlight of her life. Poetry was incredibly funny, always keeping me laughing, and we shared many deep conversations that supported me during the toughest times of my life. She was such a beautiful soul, and I am grateful to have met her and built a friendship with her. I am heartbroken to hear of her passing; I will forever remember the wonderful person she was. She will truly be missed.
