I'm so sorry to hear of Valerie's passing and I send my sincerest condolences to her husband and family at such a difficult time. I worked with Valerie for many years at CAA. I considered her to be a friend and I was also her travel agent for quite a few years as well, until I left CAA a couple of years ago. I always enjoyed sitting with her and talking about all of her trips and the cruises she was usually planning with her husband. She always made a point to come see me instead of just chatting on the phone or emailing me. She loved to travel and went to many exciting places. I will never forget her. She left a lasting impression on me, as I'm sure she did to many people.
