Cancer strikes again

I just lost my friend Rita to cancer. While we were not close, she was a loyal person whose smile and willingness to participate in anything I came up with was always appreciated. I will miss her.  As a supporting member of the Jonesborough (TN) Storytellers Guild, she was superb, attending meetings, offering to help those of us who are performing storytellers in any way.  Just two years ago, she and her husband walked in the Jonesborough Days Parade, holding our banner between them. Not long after that, she was diagnosed with dread cancer; now she is gone, but her memory will linger long.
