When you talk about your mother on stage -- not only are you funny (homemade-tofu-making-pan-African-radical-hippie comments) -- you don't only serve as a conduit of humor. I receive a small spoonful of her happiness, beauty, and strength. I really do get a fuller picture of what she was and still is. Thank you for sharing the love.

She will be missed.
