A remarkable woman of grace and elegance, a world traveler and a true New Yorker, she loved the theatre, museums, culinary excellence, and had impeccable taste in clothing. She was an elegant hostess who loved entertaining friends and family in a warm, bountiful milieu. Cherished by her whole family and many friends, she was sustained by the loving care of her aides, Josephine Decan, Charlene Williams-Johnson and Christine Shields. She was a link to a generation that will be sorely missed. A memorial service will be held at a future date.
