Flo Steinberg and me - August 2012

This photograph of Flo Steinberg and me was taken in New York City in August 2012 outside her favorite diner. She made me promise not to publish it while she was alive. I am sorry to say it is okay to publish it now. Flo passed away today, as reported by Larry Hama on his Facebook page, "I am grieved to report that ‘Fabulous’ Flo Steinberg passed away this morning after complications from a brain aneurism and metastatic lung cancer." I spoke to her on the phone last Tuesday. She was in pain and ready to go, so I know it is a blessing, but I am truly going to miss my friend. She was a very special lady and I am grateful for having known her. June and I love you, Flo. Rest in peace.
