of a school board candidate forum. When the movie with her opening in reference to Tom Delay played I rushed to see it. I remember my husband and friend choosing a different show in the same theater-Anjelica-but I knew I wanted to see this icon's story of our Congressman. Recently, the newspaper wasn't thrown in Sugar Mill and I was quite disappointed. Then I was gone all summer traveling and it occurred to me there might be other reasons I hadn't been receiving a paper. I read this morning about her death. What will I do now to trust someone to tell me what is really going on in Ft. Bend? Sincerely, Joyce Roberta "JR" Miller-Alper Ed.S.
