I was pretty sure that she was granted Membership by the National Board
of Directors at some point in the past, but maybe one of the former
Board members could confirm that.

Having met her at 2 different conventions, I agree that she was a very
special lady and will be missed.  I hope that when I am in my 80's I can
keep up with kids 60 years my junior, like she was able to.   :)

In LFS,

Todd Price

I remember having a talked with her at the philadelphia convention.
She talk to me about how the fraternity had changed.  We sat there in
the lobby watching people of the fraternity go by.  She was not an
honorary brother.  That was the first thing I ask.  Why, because I
didn't want to say something against her membership.  But that is what
got us into the conversation about membership. She said to me the
fraternity use to be very particular about who they would let join.
Now they let anybody join.  I didn't think she was talking about female
membership.  I think she was talking about the standard of the
individual who had membership.  Because she was saying that, just as a
female who had daisy dukes and colored tights on, was walking by.

JayBEE!
