I remembered the first day I was introduced to your Mom. Glen Copper said "You'll just love her.", and I did. I met you, Stella, and loved you too. You visited our home in Minnesota, came to the camp ground, went swimming, and had great picnics. My family loved your Mom and you too. They still talk about those times. I remember our Friday night dinners, I can't remember the name of the restaurant but it had a bookstore next door. We loved going into that bookstore after dinner. I loved working on Spoon River with Rhoda. It was two years of hard work, but what a collaboration between students, artists and staff. This is what made Rhoda "tick". We could not have done it without Rhoda's laughter. You may have thought you waited in line with all these projects and students, but you were always first in line...up front before everyone one and everything else....you and your giant dogs. You will never be alone because you will always hear that laughter somewhere in the crowd. Love ya Rebecca Mormann-Krieger
