    That's too bad. Hopefully he was with her and not still in Africa when she passed.

    She sounded like a neat lady -- too bad about the Alzheimer's. It is a painful way to go for those around you.

    Sad news. I hope he media gives him his space during this time.

    PA has had a huge impact on the Portland and Oregon community . . . and whatever you want to say about his ownership effectiveness, he is very good, generous and decent man. Portland is lucky to have him involved with the community.

    My condolences to Paul Allen and is family. Very sad to lose a parent. She was a great supporter of theater, art and literature. The NW lost a great ambassador.
    RIP Faye.

    RIP. She appears to have had a long and productive life. You can clearly see the influences on her son (love of books, for example).
