Mary Travers--American Treasure. Rest in Peace.

Mary Travers, an American Treasure, passed away on Wednesday, September 16th at age 72. Mary, along with Noel Paul Stookey and Peter Yarrow, consituted the singing group "Peter, Paul, and Mary" and gave to America and the World iconic songs and brave witness. When I think of Mary and her group I think of the likes of Woody Guthrie, Pete Seeger, Bob Dylan, and Judy Collins. We will miss her voice, her artistry, and her social conscience. Rest in Peace, Mary Travers.
