Dear Chris and Nick,
I remember your mom so well. I was the first student to do her Body Factory show with her on Channel 10. On the drive to the shows taping I was asking her what we would do on the show and she always told me just to " wing it ". She was always so positive about every experence she encountered.
I moved to Aspen from Ft. Lauderdale 25 years ago and I am still doing aerobic classes 3 days a week thanks to her wonderful enthusiasm.
Please know thatI WILL MISS HER DEARLY.

I began working for Candy in the 1980's. I worked at the Body Factory in Ft. Lauderdale for years, and was with Candy when her husband passed away from brain cancer. Her boys were very young. I taught Aerobics from 1980 until 2007, all because of the spirit of this unique woman. God Bless you, Candy! Your legacy will live on, and you will be greatly missed.

It is heart breaking to have lost Candy. Her encouraging words and motivation lead me to make one of the most important decisions of my my life....pursue my career in fitness. Being part of the WFA family has been an unforgettable experience. Candy not only created a school she created a home. A place where as soon as you walk through those doors, you are welcomed by a family and you leave your troubles behind. I will forever be grateful and she will never be forgotten. To Chris & Nick, God bless you and your family. You are in my prayers.
