I wonder what occupied her thoughts in her last days, knowing that she was the last of her kind, that she had outlived her husband and children. I can only think she must have experienced a profound loneliness. I'm glad they at least recorded her voice, but I hope they captured more than just the snippets I heard in the clip. |
