Candie was my step mother for much of my life. I loved her dearly and I believe she would’ve been so much happier if her ex (my father) hadn’t treated her so badly in the end. I lost track f her but found her right before her passing and we reunited via phone calls and video chat. Covid prevented me from a visit. She was hilarious, loving, smart, motivated and a dynamo in her day. I’ll miss you, Candie.
