    Geraldine Ferraro passed away

    I read in the newspaper that Rep. Geraldine Ferraro passed away from cancer. She was the Democratic candidate for vice-president in 1984, my second year of college. First woman vice-presidential candidate representing a major political party in America. That was the first Presidential election I was old enough to vote in.
    Praying for peace in the Middle East, Ukraine, and around the world.

    I've been Boo'd ... right off the stage!

    Aaahh, I have been defrosted! Thank you, Bonny and Asiel!
    Brrrr, I've been Frosted! Thank you, Asiel and Pomtzu!

    Same here. . .I'm so sorry to hear that. She was a mighty woman.
