I will miss her. She was always funny, gracious and kind to me and we bonded over the idea that after a certain age it is FINE to have cookies for dinner, especially if they are chocolate. I love this picture of her. She was a beauty, inside and out.

I remember her voice and her laughter. She was always good to me, from the time I was a teenager. Part kindness and generosity, part willful courage, I will never forget her. Deepest sympathy to all who love her.
