Marcia Yakes, Detroit Pioneer in Mass Transit and Community Relations, Passes

It is with the deepest regrets that I have to share the news of a dear friend, Marcia Yakes, Board Member of Transportation Riders United of Detroit, has left us her legacy. 

Always there to help someone in need...In need of being called out, In need of an ear, in need of ruffling feathers of local officials...

I guess the Lady in the Dungeon (what my kids used to call her) decided she could have greater mobility in spirit to go around cussing folks out for doing stupid stuff. I got this, woman. 

Still on the mission...

I can hear her now, yelling at me, laughing wildly.
