I hope one of her daughters will earn her place in your heart.
Quite honestly, they already do. The oldest, Bluebelle, sounds like her, looks a lot like her, is an excellent mum, and loves to be hugged and petted. Sister of the daughter who went to market with her, Emily, is lighter in markings, but is friendly and an excellent mum. Youngest daughter is, Arya, had a very shaky start to life. She appeared stillborn, and I gave her mouth-to-muzzle. She had a few fits shortly after her first few gasps related probably to anoxia, and passed black urine the following day due to muscle breakdown. One of triplets, she was a full bottle lamb right from the start.

This is Arya now

She's really spoilt and super-friendly.

So....her legacy lives on....but I still miss her.
