Title: Maya Angelou has Passed Away
Post by: Kat S. on May 28, 2014, 02:58:20 pm

Famed literary author Maya Angelou has passed away at age 86.  Here is one article about her. (http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/usanow/2014/05/28/maya-angelou-dies-at-age-86/9663497/)

I started the thread in this section because I think her works made an impact with society and history than just entertainment.  If it still doesn't qualify, I wouldn't get mad at the moderators for moving it.


Still, you will be missed, Maya Angelou.  You were one of the greats of our time.

I actually met her.  She truly was great.

The caged bird is free.


Rest in peace, Miss Angelou

I was going to say the same.

RIP, Maya, may you fly free in eternity!

I know she did a book signing in Dallas TX back in 2011.  Now I wish I got to meet and greet her myself.  Goes to show to not take moments like that for granted.
