• I only just saw this. never saw it in the news over here.
  Sad news as I read all her books too - some of them many times over. She brought me many a happy and peaceful hour.

• So sad, she was an author I REALLY liked, and i read her health had been declining but only jsut now learned she had passed away . She did leave a wonderful legacy of books behind as well as the other female writers she collaborated with and mentored. I hope she is with the Lord now and at rest. She will be missed !
