I got word this morning that my mother had passed. It was quite unexpected, but it sounds like she died peacefully and without suffering. I’m glad for that, as well as the fact that she kept her vigor and intellectual clarity to the very end, but I will miss her tremendously. I’m on a plane to Maryland and will likely be there for a few weeks.
