Thanks ladies. I don't know yet about a funeral or memorial service. She was from Boston and most of her family, including her mother, live in that area. But she lived down here a long time so I'm hoping there will be a service for her here, and if not then I will suggest to some other neighborhood friends that we have a get-together in her memory.

I haven't done a charity ride in a while and I was thinking it might be time to do a Tour de Cure this year, since my friend was just one of many people I know who have diabetes. There are several TdCs in this area. The one I'd prefer to do, in terms of location, is the Saturday of Mother's Day weekend and I was planning to be out of town then. There's another one in June. I'm not thrilled by the route they use for that one so I might volunteer to support it instead of riding it. Or maybe I'll look into the one on the eastern shore of Maryland. I'm not sure yet.
