Nancy Weston Levy
She died this morning in Charlottesville VA. She taught art history for many years at SCSU and was one of my favorite colleagues.

Munsinger Park, St. Cloud
On Saturday, Oct. 14, 1967 I walked this path beside the Mississippi an hour after watching a loved one die in a nearby hospital. Unlike today, the weather was foul, the leaves gone. I was in a suspended state of anguish and deep sadness and trying hard to cry. I thought the river path and the weather would help uncork my emotions.. It finally happened but not until years later when I tried describing the moment to Lavona on one of our first dates.

In the waning years of WW II, we were living in Rockville Center, Long Island, I was about 12 and dad was dying of a brain tumor. Mom said NYC was no place for a widow to bring up a child, so she packed us up and we took a train to her childhood home in Detroit Lakes Minnesota. That's where she met and married this widower. He was a clothing salesman and outdoorsman.
