    Harry, I so enjoyed getting to know Candida through your eyes and lovely words about her. She was clearly a very special and strong woman. You were blessed to have her in your life and so were her children, her family members and little Zoey. From the photos I have watched pass over this site, Candida clearly found joy in even the smallest gifts in this life. You have my heartfelt condolences along with those of my students and my own daughters. Without a doubt, Candida is now enjoying gifts that we can only dream of. Thoughtfully, Barb

    What sad news to read of Candida’s passing at such a young age. We had heard she had cancer but we weren’t aware it was this serious. May all the good times of laughing together and making wonderful memories sustain you over the days, weeks and months to come. May she rest in peace with the angels and all who have passed before her. She’s in good hands.
    Our deepest condolences to you Harry and to all of the family
