(NPR) Virginia Giuffre, who accused Britain's Prince Andrew and other influential men of sexually exploiting her as a teenager trafficked by financier Jeffrey Epstein, has died. She was 41.

Giuffre died by suicide Friday at her farm in Western Australia, her publicist confirmed.

"Virginia was a fierce warrior in the fight against sexual abuse and sex trafficking. She was the light that lifted so many survivors," her family said in a statement. "Despite all the adversity she faced in her life, she shone so bright. She will be missed beyond measure."

1. Virginia

We knew you not, and yet, you
Are in our daily thoughts and prayers
Rest forever knowing you are well-loved, and
Save us all a few seats in the shade by the brook
So we might share your new-found happiness together
