She died Sunday morning, June 12, 2011, of a stroke. One of her sisters sent us an email last night to let us know.

According to her sister, while on a flight to Hawaii she developed a headache and lost consciousness. The plane returned to LAX airport where she was taken to UCLA Medical Center and admitted to a neuroscience intensive care unit. She never regained consciousness and was removed from life support Sunday morning about 10:00 am. She held on for about 25 minutes with very little struggle.

She is survived by her son, her estranged husband, and her two sisters. The body will be cremated and returned to Phoenix, Arizona where she lived. Funeral plans are pending.

Her sister suggested that anyone wishing to make a memorial contribution in her name should make it to the Juvenile Diabetes Society or to DU.

Rest in peace, blondeatlast.
