BARBARA ROSE

Sent earlier but not sure it got through so I'm rewriting it:
Barbara and I and a third friend traveled through Europe together during the summer of 1960, a memorable experience about which I wrote a short story called "Our Decade," a phrase she used as our ship was pulling out of NY harbor as we were toasting each other with champagne: "This is our decade," she said. As in most things, she was right. The story is in a book of fiction called "Riverside Drive Follies," published a year...

Barbara and I and another friend traveled through Europe together during the summer of 1960. She was one of the smartest and most interesting people I've ever known. Please accept my condolences to her entire family. Thank you.
