Oh, wow. That makes me so sad. I loved her books as well. Well, I guess I still love them, but it's sad to think there will be no more new stories by her.

I just found out a week or so ago. I am saddened. I have been a big fan since the "Light a Penny Candle" days.

Oh my gosh. I hadn't heard about this. She's a legend in my household. Wow.

May she find much peace...
