Thanks dear Jane, your Wisdom and Courage is an example for all off us! Your Love and Energy last forever!!!

Condolences to her family

Jane Goodall was an inspiration to many people, myself included. Her work with chimpanzees, as well as her kindness to people earned her the admiration of the world.

I've followed you and have been so very proud of you and women that can see the vision of what could be and will be I'm afraid. I'm so thankful you were here in my life. That you sowed your seeds of what can happen that will still be valued after our time on earth is gone. I'm hoping that many young folks see the possibility of what can be and held fast to your shooting start emblazing another path. Maybe...
