Can't say enough good things about Kathleen Gilmore.  For many, many years 
her presence brightened and enlightened many gatherings of the (now defunct) 
Gran Quivira Conferences, those informal get togethers of people who shared 
an interest in the Spanish Brderlands..  She is much more than a great 
archaeologist.  She is a great lady.
