To: MS.BEHAVIN
i just wish i had known her as a young hellion, instead of as an elderly, sick, lady (when i was a "shirttail kid").

in spite of how much she must have embarrassed her parents/family/tribe at that time, i think she, TOO, made a real DIFFERENCE! furthermore, i think she made a difference to a LOT of young women, even now.

i think of my Aunt Hattie's comment to me, about 30 years ago: "There is so much bad in the best of us & so much good in the worst of us, you can't tell who's who, without a play-list. history will judge just what her legacy is."
