She and her two brothers were the first triplets born in Los Angeles County. She died two days after them and their interment was held so that she could be placed in the same casket. From the Los Angeles Times: "The two tiny brothers were placed in the head of the casket with the sister below them. All were robed delicately in white, with flowers in their small hands. When the casket was closed and carried to the hearse it was completely covered with flowers which neighbors and acquaintances had contributed."
