I read an article about her a couple of weeks ago just after she died. I didn't realize she had a relationship with Gordon Lightfoot for several years before she moved to California. I'll never be able to listen to Sundown the same way again.

I did see that when it happened. I don't have and didn't even know any of his music before his death despite having a lot of his father's albums and CD's. Sad story and the apple didn't fall far from the tree.
Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Good news Mitch McConnell will certainly follow his own actions and not entertain the idea of stuffing the court. As he said, the American public must be given a chance to speak.

Was crushed to hear this. I'd hoped that she could have hung in there until next year. RIP. She lived a good life.

Fuuuuuuuuck.
Well this sucks. Watching On the Basis of Sex Tonight in honour. RBG was a badass. RIP indeed.
Very sad night in our house last night.
My sister knew her and is devastated
An enormously brilliant woman, a fantastic advocate, one of the sharpest minds ever. Saying that she will be missed is about as huge an understatement as one can make.
