A Passing . . .

It saddens us to report that women's pro basketball pioneer Kaye Cowher died yesterday of skin cancer at the age of 54.

BC Judith had the privilege of meeting Kaye several years ago when she and her husband Bill (former Steelers coach) visited Comcast to cheer on daughter Meagan, a member of the Princeton University basketball team, in a match against the Terps. Judith found Kaye to be a warm and friendly person . . . not to mention a great supporter of women's basketball. (Our posts about Kaye and that match are here and here.)

Our hearts and our sympathies go out to all of Kaye's family and friends.
