Saturday, October 24th on the runway of the Cumberland Airport where she road
raced in the 60s, Donna Mae's ashes were scattered from a white '59,
fuel-injected Corvette convertable. It was her wish they be scattered there,
at the grave of her favorite uncle and at Beaver Run.

I first met The Think Pink Lady about six years ago when she was working grid
for Steel Cities at Beaver Run. Whenever we spoke, she was vibrant, funny and
had a certain twinkle in her eyes. Two summers ago, the last time, she had a
cast on her foot but was still directing traffic in her pink gloves with her
black Chevette with a pink racing stripe nearby.

Number Twenty-three, I wish I had known you better.
