This news really breaks my heart and soul. I admired this Lady so much as a little kid. I was 6 months old the first time I seen her on TV. (My mom had me wacthing OTS). I know she was my first crush at 6 yrs old. And she forever will be. (Still think she is the hottest and sexiest Lady there ever will be). I admired her for her intelligence and for leading the way for not women of color but for all women. There is not one woman today that can even come close to all her accomplishments. The great leaps she did to have women in the space program. This world, this life will surely miss this Lady, I have never cried for an actress but for Her I am. I am glad I got to meet her, she was so cool and nice and so 'real' to her fans (not fake like others are). My prayers go out to her family.
