Remembering Lara Parker

[dhill757]

A great personal loss to me, we lost Lara Parker this week to cancer. Most of you will remember her as the actress who played Angelique back on Dark Shadows in the 1960s. I remember her as a fellow author who will live on in the books she wrote and the rroles she played.
