When that chariot came down to deliver Odetta from these earthly shackles, I know that she was picked up in a brand new Lincoln Zephyr which delivered her to stand at the right hand of Jesus, who only talks to those who have lived good lives and gone on to their heavenly reward, whatever that may be.

Gone but not forgotten, and one of my favorite folk musicians. I have her on many record albums and still treasure her voice and her message. May she live on forever in the memories of those who treasured her music and her many friends, relatives and those who were closest to her.
