I hope to meet Beth someday -- it'd be neat to meet a Pulitzer WINNER.

Her dad used to come by our house all the time to talk to the judge. After her parents divorced, her mother married local attorney Gene Caldwell. Lydy Henley Caldwell was 74 when someone broke into her house and killed her. That just horrified me.
