Paige Ellen Halley

Notes:

She died today. I remember her as materially wealthy and energetically vibrant all her life. She loved gold and diamonds, but was a tom boy. I cannot ever remember seeing her in a dress - ever. Paige swam butterfly and relays in the Olympic trials, a dedicated and serious swimmer from preschool. Breaking records left and right in Junior Olympics, she threw out her shoulder and required surgery shortly before the summer olympic games and could not compete. She never had the health returned to her to go back. Plagued with ovarian and uterin cysts, shortly after hooking up with Ruben (married?) she had a full hysterectomy to save her life. Unable to have children, several years later they adopted Asa. Paige loved horses, and owned, bread and trained them to compete, on her ranch in Texas with Ruben. They later divorced/separated. Paige was plagued with degenerative health problems for the rest of her life. She had at one point, over a hundred hairline fractures in her spine, and was confined to a wheelchair at times over the remainder of her life. She died young, seven days after her 42nd birthday. Her father David, long since divorced, moved back to Ohio this last year to tend to her and Asa, now in high school. Still, her death came to me a bit unexpectedly. I will be 41 in a few months. I plan to return to Ohio for the funeral, and to comfort my closest cousin, her sister Jan Marie. ~ Kimbra Halley Sullivan
