A Dizzy In The Lizzy

I didn't forget.

(02/22/2003; 12:50pm) - I didn't forget.

February 22nd, 1943.

My mom, Beth Elgot, was born in Detroit. She had a twin brother, my uncle Mark. He lives outside
Seattle where it's probably raining today, as it is here in NYC, as it is in the minds of anyone who
ever met Beth Elgot Kline.

She would have turned 60 years old today had she not succumbed, after a 10+ year battle, to breast
cancer. That was May 27th, 2001, just after I graduated from Vassar College.

I'm not sad, it's still a great weekend. I will remember her strength and infinitely deep love today
and forever more.
