Goodbye Julia Sugarbaker!

Mrs. Carter's daughters were 2 and 3 years ahead of me respectively in junior high and high school, and both were very active in the school's drama, music and dance departments. Despite Designing Women's schedule at the time, Mrs. Carter was very gracious in donating her time to the school in various capacities with the performing arts departments, and of course, was very supportive of the many, many productions her daughters participated in; I think one, the other or both was pretty much in every school play, musical, concert or recital until they graduated, so we saw her around school often. She will be missed.

Thank you, sidwich, for your familiar remembrance. It gives us another dimension of Ms. Carter's humanity.
