I spent so much time in her house as a kid, she was like a second mom. She was a loving, tolerant, funny and creative soul. One of my favorite people. Thank you for the gifts you unknowingly gave.

Thanks for the memories...

My first shot of bourbon in apple juice to warm me after helping with a backed-up sewer on a cold, rainy November night.

Summers in Tahoe, and laughing hysterically after realizing halfway down the fairway that all the golf clubs had fallen out of the cart when we took off from the first hole.

Her wonderful cooking and learning my first Italian word, "mangiare".

Being able to keep a sense of humor in the face of challenges.

Halloween and the distinct cackle of that lovable Witch of Ridgewood.

But most of all, the unwavering love you showed a gay boy trying to find his way.

Looking forward to the next time we meet.

Such fond memories of Marty (and Chuck's) hospitality when on trips to California... she was a woman who made you feel you'd known her forever and truly welcome in her home.
