Cokie is one of my personal heroes, and has been a part of my daily routine for so long that I feel like I have lost a friend. She was an amazing woman who in her too-short 75 years accomplished much and inspired millions. May she rest in peace.

Always enjoyed listening to her inputs on issues. She had an exceptional command over communication of subtleties of issues and especially motivations on behaviors. She will be missed.
RIP

An actual journalist, and part of a tribe that is diminishing, quite unlike the new breed of talking haircuts... RIP.

I was in college when she first started on NPR and was able to listen every day. She was so wonderfully good at what she did. I'll miss her.
