How wonderful to see that photo that David (Sharpe) sent from 1983.   I 
remember being overwhelmed by the food at Winedale which seemed to come from 
heaven (and in large quantities).  The local friends who became part of the 
support system at Winedale were every bit as much a part of the process as the 
characters in the plays we performed.  It is heartbreaking to let any of them 
go.

Angelene died today.  She was our cook at Winedale for my 30 years of 
Shakespeare at Winedale.  She loved cooking and she loved Shakespeare at 
Winedale.  In 1980 she promised me that she would retire only when I did.  And 
she kept that promise.  Many of you do not know but at the end of each summer, 
she gave me a greeting card on which she wrote simply “Thanks”.  Inside was a 
folded new 100 bill.  For 30 years.  For Shakespeare at Winedale.  And you 
likely don’t know that when she cooked fried chicken, she saved the wings for 
me, hiding them in the kitchen. 

 

She loved every one of you too.
