I just learned of Candy's departure. We went to Cal High together and both ended up at Fullerton. We were good friends and had a lot of fun. I never knew she was ill, we spoke throughout the years, but not for a few years past. I am so sad to learn this; I kept thinking I would see her again. This is truly heartbreaking. Harvey, I knew your parents also. If you see this, please call me. 530 521-2334

Margie and I want to wish Candy's brother and family our deepest sympathy on the loss of their sister and Aunt. I thank her for letting me be her fur brother Dallys second Mom after her mother Edna passed away. Now they are all together. Give that sweet boy a kiss for me.

We met such a short time ago, yet it was plenty enough time to know that Candace was a spectacularly wonderful woman. Lively, witty, creative, caring, interested-in-everything. Wherever she was, the world was a pretty great place to be.I know she will often be in my thoughts.

For 20 years I saw Candace defend countless folks in trouble. She always spoke the truth and never fell short of real. I have missed her during her illness. Now that she is gone I will treasure having known and worked with her.

The first time I met Candace was at an after symphony party at the Goldsmith's home in the mid 70's. Such a flood of wonderful memories. I still have a birthday card that she made for my 30th.
I will always remember her as an amazing, creative, brilliant soul.

Candace was indeed an advocate for the underdog. I admire the work she did as an attorney, she contributed greatly to society in her profession. Not a lot of us can say our careers allowed us to do just that (contribute to society). I enjoyed her stories of the early years in Alaska, and her advice on decorating, art, life in general. She was straight forward, no mincing words, funny and kind. Fantastic artist as well, with a wonderful sense of style. I'm glad I had the chance to know her. Prayers to her family during this difficult time.

Candace alwayss had class, but not hubris. She was fearless in defence of her clients. We lost a great one!

Candace was a brilliant friend and confidante. She provided top quality representation to her clients, never seeking attention for herself. Intelligent, witty, compassionate, fun, irreverent those are some of the words that come to mind. We will miss her immensely.

The world has lost a kind person and a strong advocate for vulnerable people. A hero for all of the underdogs on this earth. I admired her so very much. A wonderful mentor. I am so very very sorry to see her go.

Harvey and Galen,
I was so sorry to hear about Candace's passing this a.m. She was a good stepmother to me, and since becoming a stepmother myself in 2014, I came to appreciate her even more as I faced challenges with my husband's children. Candace was often the only bridge between my father and myself, helping us to navigate our rocky father/daughter relationship. She was extremely generous to me in a variety of ways. She gifted me with Sluggo, her old '77 VW Rabbit, which carried me to my wonderful adventure of living in Taos, NM from 94-98 (surviving a blown head gasket in Barstow on the drive there!). We lost touch after she and my dad split, but she was helpful to me last year when I had to contact her regarding some details re: my dad's will. I will remember her for her style, beautiful handwriting, and the many delicious meals she offered me during my lean college years. Finally, I will spend some time on the memory of a weekend I spent with her and my dad at Buck's Lake, sailing on that little orange sailboat. It's the happiest and most peaceful memory I have of my dad, and it's because of Candace I was able to spend that time with them. I'm very sorry for your loss of your sister and aunt.

My Aunt Candace passed away Tuesday. She was one of my role models since childhood. A brilliant defense attorney, a painter, an intellectual, and a beautiful and singular woman. She died of renal cancer. I spent all day today thinking about how much I would have liked to see her one more time and of all the things I would have said to her and asked her.
