Both remarkable ladies

But my sympathies to their family and friends too :-(

Sorry I didn't realise this was a thread for someone you knew - it wasn't clear from the OP.
Congratulations to your friend and sympathies to the one that didn't finish.

A brave thing to do, and inspiring to others.

My thoughts and sympathy to the family of the person who died, rest in peace.
