GLADYS-MARIE FRY

Dr. Gladys Marie Fry was a dear friend and mentor to me and so many others. She and I took at trip to Kansas State University in 2011 and had a fantastic time. She was instrumental in helping me finish my doctorate. To Mrs. Mary Fry - Moore, if you receive this message, would you contact me directly, [email protected] or 301.943.3045. Thank you for your consideration. Dr. Gladys Fry, your memory will live with me forever. God Bless you!

I am so happy that I have found these books by Marie Fry. I am a Black Quilter also. It is just so nice to find books about other black women who quilt.

I miss Cousin Gladys, she was the daughter of my Fathers only brother. So glad I visited her and her family years ago in Washington, DC.

I just learned that Dr. Fry passed away. I was a mature student in one of her folklore classes, and I liked and respected her so much. Occasionally, I would run into her at the supermarket in Silver Spring, and she was always so warm and gracious. She was a special woman. May she Rest In Peace.

Great lady with a true purpose. I am looking for a copy of Ms. Fry's book titled, Broken Star: Post Civil war Quilts Made by Black Women." I am working on my thesis which is about how African American women have used textiles to tell stories and make social statements. If you know how I can obtain a copy of Ms. Fry's book, please let me know.

I just learned that Dr. Fry has passed, and I am just beginning to know her work. I look forward to the journey of digesting all that she wished to share

Thank you,Dr. Fry, forhelping me to appreciate the wisdom and strength of ordinary Black women.
