Sad to see her go. Not many of the iconic people of the past are left anymore. She lived quite a life though. Rest in peace dear lady, and I truly hope you're having a wonderful reunion right now with those who've gone before you. My prayers go with her family and all those at Lotus.

I'm sure she's sharing a drink with Frank Williams right now.
