Valerie loved photography from and early age. Her photos of nature and the state of Maine were her gifts to the world. After being diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis in 2000, life changed and she adjusted. Mobility became a challenge as well as writing. Staying positive and learning to assist others were new successes. Children and their fresh perspective and views of the world captivated her.

Unafraid to travel on to the next adventure and join her beloved cat "Fiddlehead", she leaves behind her sisters Vicki (Horr) McAllian of Alabama, Cheryl (Horr) Whitney of Colorado, Chris (Horr) Holley of Tennessee, and Carrie (Horr) Acitelli of Minnesota.
