Came, still young, to Feira de Santana and here, gray hairs already reached the end of its existence as arrived here: friend and selfless, idealistic and poor, giving them all what she could, asking nothing for themselves, requiring or asking anyone else. Professor, served as the teaching apostolate. Beletrista and intellectual, was brilliant in the many activities of her spirit of choice. And yet, the more adamant that this spirit flickered and was the refuge of righteousness attitudes, the reserve of moral forces, the grandeur of a flawless character, sense of justice, love to truth. A great, noble and illustrious citizen. "BIBLIOGRAPHICAL SOURCES1. Almeida, Damião de Oscar - Dictionary of Feira de Santana (2 ª. Edition). Fair, 20062. Bahia Coelho, Thereza Chistina - Dr. G.
