Sad to hear that... I sat next to her at a square dance with my fiddle one time. That grey-haired lady fiddled me into the ground! She was a very sweet and classy woman and a fine musician in her own right. She's reportedly the source of at least one (Valley Forge) and perhaps other tunes common in the oldtime fiddlers' repertoire. I'm proud to have been around her on a couple of occasions.
