As foreshadowed in a recent post, my sister died of cancer today.

It is a loss to the world and her family. She was a lawyer and then worked for Good Causes, and was good at those. Inspired by our parents' eminently successful marriage, she married someone good for her first try, as I did. She and Joe Cimmet had three wonderful children: Brian, Alison, and Stephanie.

She reached out, but our contacts were limited by my psychological inadequacies. Still, my family and hers managed to get together on a number of occasions, and a good time appeared to be had by all.

She fought the disease for a few years, and got to see the Yankees win another World Series, but knew when the war was over. The end was mercifully soon after that.

Good-bye, Eve. You are remembered with love.
