I'm shocked and saddened to hear of Marjorie's passing. I first met Marjorie some 30 years ago when, as a Renaissance and Dante scholar, she descended into the gritty and adversarial world of television industry litigation as a worthy, but always graceful and charitable, adversary. As she then returned to a world of relative sanity covering chemical and oil industries, I treasured our lunches in the basement cafeteria of NYC's Exxon Building. Then, as she elevated her life even further by returning to one of her true loves, literature, and then marrying her other true love, John, I continued to follow her from afar. I always valued her friendship, intellect, perspective, warmth, grace and ebullience. Even though we did not communicate as frequently in recent years as I would have liked, I will miss her greatly.
