Tyler Florence, a fellow chef, said she will always be a "force of nature.""That 'it factor' people talk about with celebrities?" he added. "She had it in spades. She was so big people would just fall all over her... She always used the word lucky. She had a collage of star tattoos on her left arm. I asked her what her what they meant, and she said she really loved the night sky and how lucky she felt to be a star."
