It’s so rare to find kind, gentle souls like hers in this industry, this city…even this world,” D’Errico wrote on Facebook. “Truly one of the most genuinely sweet and gentle people I’ve ever come across in my life. She brought a sweetness and bright energy to any room she happened to walk into…even in her darker times.”
