I am shedding real tears here. Dr. Maya Angelou was like a surrogate Grandmother to me. Whenever I've needed advice, inspiration, comfort or just a smile, I would find them in her words and deeds. cry

Rest In Power, Dr. Maya Angelou. You will never, ever be forgotten. rose

I knew from the start that I loved you with all my heart.

None of the news reports say why she died. They said she had cancelled some appearances because of illness, but they don't report what happened. I wonder why.
