3. I was laying on a gurney on the ER when my wife told me the news.

My response was “Goddamnit to hell!”

The medical staff was not amused.

4. I see her dignified face every day from a framed photo I keep in my home office.

You are much missed, Justice Ginsburg

5. Had she lived, do you think she would have retired by now?

Wonder if she would have finished out her term and retired in June, retired the moment Biden was sworn in, or kept going.

7. "The entering class I joined in 1956 included just nine women,

up from five in the then second-year class, and only one African American. All professors, in those now-ancient days, were of the same race and sex.

Ruth Bader Ginsburg

Not when she had to leave.

10. I learned about it here as soon as she passed.

I walked downstairs, and between sobs, told my husband, "Ruth is gone." The death of someone I don't know can make me sad, but her passing, made me cry as if she had been my great-aunt.
