I lost a friend and the world lost a creative, loving kind person on April 2nd, when teacher/writer/columnist/wife/daughter/friend Margot Griffin passed away. Margot wrote a series for children: “The Dance of Life”, “Dancing for Danger” and “Secret of the Crystal Cave.” Margot had an extraordinary gift for insight and despite her own health concerns, seldom dwelled on them, instead, wanted to know how everyone else was doing. I will miss her. There is to be a celebration of life memorial in May.
