But I guess no matter how sick she was during her last year- she was still beautiful for sure, on the outside and on the inside.

Most of what everyone heard then was nonsense. She had open heart surgery and had a pig valve and pacemaker inserted in her heart in 1994.

If thats true then her story is skewed and should be viewed as such (thats a word of caution to the next intrepid armchair detective who gets this far) Its funny how the internet makes it possible for anyone with curiosity and an active imagination to dig up these stories and become fascinated with the lives of people theyve never met who have passed away. e_wink.gif I was only then getting to know Layne and I liked him a lot.
