      Very sorry for the loss of your friend. Unfortunately, the LA Coroners office ruled her death accidental due to ACUTE PHENCYCLIDINE, MEHTAMPHETAMINE, MORPHINE, AND HYDROCODONE TOXICITY. You can see for yourself by going to the LA Coroners website and typing in her name. It doesn’t appear she has been buried as of yet.

      She dated my ex when we were split up and I was living out of state. When we met she said she was 46. I was invited to her ’47th’ birthday party, but I decided not to attend.

      My ex started dating her again in October when we broke up a second time. He told me on Thanksgiving that she had broke things off with him because she was leaving to El Salvador.

      We thought she was gone, well I did anyway. As of January 15th he hadn’t spoke of her since Thanksgiving.

        She was homeless staying in motels or at her storage last I saw her in September. We were at her storage helping her cause she couldn’t lift anything. Seemed like a nice woman. Was kind to my daughter. In October she text me to say goodbye before she left to El Salvador, but we never could get schedules to line up.
