[Oe List ...] Kate St. Clair (from Lynda Cock)

[Marianna Bailey]

Thank you for sharing the article and picture of Kate. What wonderful 
memories we have of Kate and Letty Lynn,  two women that made a profound 
difference in this world. I remember Letty Lynn deciding to wear black when 
Reagan was elected President. I have used that as an illustration of a 
symbolic stand against injustice. Both Kate and Letty Lynn are role models 
for future generations of women.
