I can’t help but think of my mom and dad right now and what their @StoryCorps conversation would have been. This next chapter for me is personal. Excited and honored.
So thrilled to share this news!

RIP Annie Perasa, the 'mother' of StoryCorps 5/3/1942-8/14/2021 from COVID-19. A spirit like no other, reunited with Danny at last. Please get vaccinated.

A love story for all time: Brooklynites Danny and Annie Perasa remember their 27-year romance — from their first date to Danny's final days with terminal cancer.

Cokie Roberts was one of the smartest, kindest, most decent, ethical and generous people walking God's green earth. A journalist and a human being without equal. The heart and soul of NPR. What a sad, sad day.
