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.'
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
