A class act and an example of a life well lived. Always a joy to see Aimee at our class
reunions. She will be missed by many. My condolences to the family. RIP, Aimee

Aimee was my math coach and friend. Every Thursday afternoon, I went to here house for coaching
and practice for the Friday math quiz. Because of this I received a B in math which helped
me get into Stanford. She was also a classmate at Stanford, one of five of the SPHS class
of 1960 that attended Stanford. She was a dear, dear friend. I will always remember her
