In 2012 Candace and Bruce moved to Albuquerque to be close to their niece, Clare O’Callaghan. Soon thereafter she was diagnosed with cancer which she battled until her death. She loved children, especially her nieces and nephews, some of whom she took into her home and had a significant influence in their lives.
