She was a best-selling children's book writer and also the author of a memoir, but in recent weeks became best known for the poignant New York Timescolumn she wrote about her husband and their life together.

The piece, which was written on Valentine's Day from her deathbed, served as an endorsement of her husband to the new love she hoped he would someday find. It was one of the most wrenching Modern Love essay ever published and quickly brought the internet to tears.
