RIP, dear lady. An icon gone.
And in the end when she needed advice there was none to give.That's usually the way it is with people who devote their lives to helping others.
Can I have a refund for the stamp I used last week?
I hope her family is well
Maybe she could have told me how to use soap and water or vacumn my garden pollen up.
