Camilla looks very beautiful in this picture and was so sweet and kind and gently spoken during the last time I saw her. It must have been 50 years since we had been together, but she related things about our past to me in a very loving and smiling manner. That is a sharp mind that can remember that far back! She will be sorely missed by her family and friends, and yes, even us of the fringe. She was a jewel of a human being.
