LAST DAY OF A GRIEF FILLED MONTH
I lost so many great friends and relatives this past month. I am going to list them here. I have already written about them:
Ranjit Kaur--my husband's sister, lived in Vancouver, lovely,lively lady. Great sister.
Robert Jenckes--my first cousin and a dear friend and support through life, active and always helpful father, brother, husband and son
Jackie Demaline--an extraordinary woman--drama critic and arts writer for the Cincinnati Enquirer. My best friend in Cincinnati.
Richard Greenberg-brilliant designer, creative genius and my friend from Grad school at Illinois.
Peter Vangel, Superintendent of schools and great teacher. Father of my good friend Elizabeth from Woonsockett.
Susan Edwards--great friend in grad school. She was the person who helped to launch the journal LAVENDER WOMAN and later she taught at Naropa in CO. Buddhist, philosopher and was a friend of Allan Ginsburg.
Now I must turn my self towards JULY. The month of my birth-- I was born on the FIFTH OF JULY, Just a little too late for the 4TH OF JULY. So since it is my 75TH birthday, and that is a big one.
I declare all of JULY my birthday month.
In a way the celebrations have begun with my visitors from California. We enjoyed an unusual series of visits from friends and cousins and old acquaintances. So our social life has enjoyed a serious upgrade.
I am increasingly thinking and planning for my participation in the PAWTUCKET ARTS FESTIVAL in SEPTEMBER.
That will be taking up more of my time and thoughts and probably will show up here.
So that is where we are on this first day of JULY and the biggest news--
LEBRON IS NOW A FREE AGENT!
Stay tuned.
