NASA Watch reports: Patsy Douglass Webb, age 96, widow of James E. Webb, who led NASA during the Apollo Lunar Program of the 1960s, died August 2 at her home in Oakland, CA. The Washington Post reports she had complications from Parkinson's Disease, which she had battled for more than 15 years.A moment of silence can be signified by an entry with no words and only a period. |

*So what was her "social" background in all of this, do we have any clues? Like so many "stories" out there... was she the gracious hostess to so many, many astronaut dinners in their home, or was that off limits? |
