September 8, 20223 yr My father actually went to a college football game with her. Ok, so not really 'with', but they were at the same game and he did see her there. It was in 1957 while she was visiting the U.S., at the University of Maryland (my father had season tickets). The Terps beat the Tar Heels 21-7.

September 8, 20223 yr RIP. She led a great counter offensive to Washington in the battle of JFK Airport in 1776.
