RIP, Mrs. Ferraro. Your presence on the 1984 Mondale ticket (right?) struck a blow for women.
I also remember how important Ms. Ferraro was in that time and place we called the 80s! She was a part of American history that will be remembered by many :)

Hello Robert. I was trying to be neutral as can be. I am the father of 2 young girls and I want them to know that they can pursue anything in this life that their little hearts desire. No politics being spoken, really. Just a warm RIP for an older girl who gives my girls hope for command of their own futures.
Sean--your.comment.was.entirely.worthwhile.and.respectful.--No.worries!--It's.just.a.nerve-racking.reality.
that.occasionally--rarely,.but.occasionally--a."political".name.sparks.more.sparks...Your.comment,.never.
fear,.was.not.taken.as.such.
A heartfelt RIP.
Whew, I thought I worded something wrong! It's so sad to see people who made history, in my lifetime, pass away. I always seem to remember them as the age I am now and I forget that they were getting older, just like me. But she still seemed too young to go.
No,.Charp--no.problem--just.reminding.folks!

Robert, I appreciate the diligence you show in keeping the board free from the politics. I thank you for reassuring me that I hadn't crossed the line. You are a gentleman.
Maybe.I'm.being.a.worry-wart,.Sean--but.I.feel.strongly.that.the.Cemetery.here.should.be,like.any.other.resting.
place,.a.place.of.peace.and.respect....There's.enough.strife.in.this.old.world--I.hope.all.who.rest.here.can.be.
assured.of.a.peaceful.rest!--Thanks.for.the.thanks,.Sean.
She was 75 years old...a great woman! RIP...

Not at all, Robert. All of the monitors do a valuable job here.
