Isabel "Isy" Tifft lit a candle

“In loving memory of Marietta F. Winfrey, who loved her family beyond reckoning and filled a unique corner of the virtual world with her fierce love, endless compassion, and wise mind; then, trained others to keep it up. In that, she did what *thousands* have tried for, but only she succeeded in. I personally adored her. We had chats that quietly lit up my world, and others that pulled me back on course from agonizing missteps. What a soul! Peace, Prayers and Blessings.”
