#294 / Some People That ...

There's some people that

You don't forget

Even though you've only seen 'em

One time or two

When the roses fade 

And I'm in the shade

I'll remember you

             - Bob Dylan 

Today, I am remembering Marge Frantz, shown above (to the right - the only time she ever was) with her longtime partner, Eleanor Engstrand. On the occasion, Marge was being honored with a Distinguished Teaching Award.

Marge was a lecturer in American Studies and Women's Studies at UCSC. She died on Friday, October 16, 2015. At least that's what I've been told by friends. She was ninety-three years old.

All those who knew her, even briefly, will remember Marge Frantz. If you didn't know her, you can access an oral history by clicking this link. 

A salute to Marge Frantz!

With thanks!!
