Sé que todos en este campo lamentan su fallecimiento. Su trabajo me ha servido de inspiración, y conocerla en persona y conversar con ella sobre el jade maya en un par de ocasiones será sin duda una de mis memorias profesionales más gratas. Quisiera haberla conocido mejor. Les deseo mucha fortaleza en estos momentos difíciles a sus familiares y amigos más cercanos.
