Her name is on a little plaque on the back of the seat in the monestary. On the next seat was Henrietta Vidolet...As I listened to the Argeles Gospel Singers belt on negro spirituals I wondered how long ago had she lived, was she a friend of Henrietta and who cared enough to put a plaque on the back of the seat.
My mind drifted to Ocean Grove New Jersey where most of the benches along the board walk and walkways are memorials.
Marie may have died last year or more likely from the rust of the nails, decades ago, but on the last night of August 2008 someone thought of her.
