One half of the most beautiful and uncannily clever duet ever—as the saying goes, they could sing the telephone book. And "French Record" is so good it is difficult to believe it ever could have been made.

Kate, I last heard you and Anna sing one night outdoors in Lowell MA a few years back. "Alice Blue Gown," and more ... I think the magical beauty of the music still clings to the trees there.

I will miss you, everyone will. Amba Lee and I send our condolences to Anna and to your families.
