My Hero Passed Away!
One of the most remarkable women in literature passed away yesterday and it wasn't even reported in the American News Media. I was sad to learn the Anne McCaffrey passed away. Here is some information on her. She was an inspiration to many young women and she was a favorite author of many.
She was my hero and someone that I aspired to emulate!  http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anne_McCaffrey

I can't believe I just learned about this from the Rolex Forum. This is really sad. Remarkable author.

Wow Holdout! Nice to meet another Pern fan! I have all her books and an extensive collection of Dragon art and a few living, real life Dragons!!! She made a huge impact on my life and was a very big reason behind my being involved with animals, especially to the extent I am!!!
Nice to meet you and welcome to the forum!!
