On Facebook, Britt announced that her husband, Ron Pratt, has died. On
February 8, she wrote this:
'Hi friends. My husband, friend of my heart, Ron Pratt, passed away
peacefully yesterday. He was at home and I was with him. So yes, I was not
quite intending to be cryptic about my news. I just wanted to change my
profile picture. For obvious reasons. Thank you for the love. If you are so
inclined, hold us in your hearts during this transition.'
Her current email address--as I've just confirmed with her--is
brittblock(a)hotmail.com.
I first met Britt in the Spring 1979 Winedale class, which also included
Jeanne McCarthy, Bruce Meyer, and Robin Mize, if I recall correctly. I
considered myself very lucky to be there with these remarkable people, who
also participated in the 1979 summer class. I particularly recall Britt's
final weekend performance in a scene from Shaw's SAINT JOAN.
Love to all of you,
Mike
