Sad news: Edie Spear

 

We were saddened to hear that Edie Spear passed away last week, at the age of 97.  We enjoyed dancing with her over many years, at folk dance events around the Chicago area, as well as June Camp and Oconomowoc Folk Dance Camp, where she taught us a  number of dances that we enjoy doing to this day.  We were pleased to see her frequently on Zoom folk dancing for the last several years, too.
