Like everyone, I am heartbroken. I have known Georgia for over 20 years. I
feel the same way you all do, and like Judith Allen, thank you for your
beautiful words. I think of how much joy Georgia brought to the lives of
everyone around her—how much joy she took in life. One could fall into
conversation with her as if no time had passed. The world is smaller
without her. I miss her deeply.
