Rae passed away on December 5, 2018, at the age of 90. Her life was a fascinating journey that left a lasting impact on her three children, seven grandchildren and eleven great-grandchildren, all of whom loved and admired her and will miss her beyond words. She lived in places near and far - Oklahoma, New Mexico, California, Michigan, Arizona, Texas, Colorado, Peru, Argentina and Mexico - and brought her intelligence, determination and curiosity to them all. Rae's example was one of honesty, courage and dignity, with a ready sense of humor and that wonderful smile. Above all, she loved and cherished her family.
