When I was 14 years old, I spent a summer as an NSF intern at the Cape Haze Marine Laboratory in Sarasota Florida, whose director was Eugenie Clark. She was an expert SCUBA diver, a great scientist, and a beautiful lady. I fell in love with her immediately, and I still am.

RIP, Jeannie. You will be missed.
