Memorial

Last week my mother-in-law, Kitty, passed away. She had Alzheimer's disease, and in many ways had left us several years ago. Still, it is very sad to know that she is no longer with us in this world. Kitty was a remarkable woman, beautiful with a bold spirit. In 1939 she became one of the first stewardesses for Delta Airlines at a time when being a registered nurse was a requirement. This past Saturday, the Atlanta Journal Constitution printed a lovely article about her along with a gorgeous photo of her in front of an old Delta airplane. I scanned the article, and hopefully it will be readable when I insert it at the end of this post.

In one of those interesting twists of fate, this week's theme for Gothic Arches is History. This gave me a perfect opportunity to use this historic photo of Kitty and make a little tribute to her.

Now here's the article. Click on the image to enlarge it.
