"Ever since I was a little girl, Molly has been almost a member of our

household. As a child, her visits were as much a joy to me as to mother

and father.

I never thought of her as old, even then--and a child generally marks

off the years in relentless fashion, for Molly was always young to me,

as she must have been to everyone who knew her.

It is wonderful to have had a nature that so helps all who knew her to

believe that life is immortal."
