Patty Robinson was my mother, I am the James Robinson quoted in the AP article. I’d like to add here that Patty handed me her copy of Jessica Mitford’s _The American Way of Death_ in the mid 70s. That book forever changed the way her entire family thinks about the treatment of human remains. We found the Texas State program after she died in the midst of dealing with that surprise. The folks there were extremely helpful then and have continued to be so very welcoming to Patty’s extended family. I can think of no finer tribute to my mother and so much that she stood for than this research at Texas State. Thanks for listening.
