I'm very sad to hear. Angelene never said much, to me anyway. But she didn't need to. She made sure we were all fed well, and she worked hard to do it. Callow as I was then, I was aware that she was looking out for us all, that she did it not just as a job, but because she cared, and she clearly cared deeply. We all say more than we really need to, anyway. It's what we do that matters. And she did.

Angelene died today. She was our cook at Winedale for my 30 years of Shakespeare at Winedale. She loved cooking and she loved Shakespeare at Winedale. In 1980 she promised me that she would retire only when I did. And she kept that promise. Many of you do not know but at the end of each summer, she gave me a greeting card on which she wrote simply “Thanks”. Inside was a folded new 100 bill. For 30 years. For Shakespeare at Winedale. And you likely don’t know that when she cooked fried chicken, she saved the wings for me, hiding them in the kitchen. She loved every one of you too. Doc
