Today, the world is an emptier place. Mirdza Paudrupe, one of my beloved childhood teachers has passed away and is at peace with the Dieviņš that she has always held near to her heart...she was a force to be reckoned with in Latvian society, a loud, in-your-face, over-zealous, patriotic, truly crazy-wonderful dame who taught hundreds of LV youth grammar (Grama-grama-gramatika, man patika gramatika!!) at the Latvian summer camp known lovingly as GVV. She was one of those rare people who truly makes their mark on the world, someone who loved what she did in life and really loved each one of her students. She influenced so many people: the young and the young at heart. She was an amazing teacher, an amazing Latvian patriot, and truly an amazing woman.
