On the day Annie (Margaret) died, Mother nature wept along with the rest of us who knew her. When I stopped in to see her the evening before she passed away, I knew it wouldn't be long. The fire and the sass that all of us who attended to her needs on a daily basis came to associate with Margaret wasn't there... the light in her eyes was gone... and the fire in her heart was burning low. I got the message early Friday morning that she was gone. It was raining already... how appropriate. To you, Annie... my friend and surrogate Mom, I say God Speed. The world has been lessened by your passing... and you will NOT be forgotten!
