I received a short e-mail from a friend today. His cousin was hit by a truck riding her bike to work. She had just graduated from Yale (as all Binghams do) and was working for a non-profit in Cleveland.
I met her when she was fourteen at the friend's wedding. The day after the wedding we went to Powell's Bookstore. She recommended the Tin Drum to me, while I recommended Absolute Beginners to her. We kept in touch after the wedding. We lost touch eventually, but I occasionally wondered where she ended up.
My first impression of her was that she was very bright, well read and a brilliant conversationalist. She was destined for great things.
