Memories/Recollections

[She] was so welcoming when I first found Trek fandom and K/S in the 80s. An English eccentric, as one of her close friends said to me yesterday. Her stories, in K/S anyway, we’re funny and clever. She’d almost invariably win caption competitions as she had such a quick wit[2]
