“She knew her worth and never settled for less, and wouldn’t let her friends settle either,” she wrote on Facebook.
“She was so proud of her work and so happy to have such amazing work friends. She would spend hours on the phone if you needed a rant and always had a bottle of wine in the fridge for the girls.
