"...just recalling her gifted wit and sometimes fiery rhetoric, and more often, soft demeanor, suddenly brought into focus just what a treasure I enjoyed."

Being over one-quarter FRench-blooded, and with a wife almost entirely FRench-Canadien, I used to love razzin' her about what wimps the FRench were and are...LOL, she didn't like that much at all and it would automatically trigger her feisty side!! She was sharp as a tack, and I believe was described elsewhere as weilding a Velvet HammerL and I'll go along with that...she will certainly be missed!!

FReegards, and thanks fer putting together this thread...MUD
