Found this and several other pics on Zeta's facebook page. Also, they mentioned that the Anderson Cooper episode will be on Nov 3.

I hope she pinches Anderson's butt. Living to that age means you can get away with that shiz. :)

THIS is what alumnae initiation is for! I love it. What a great story.

My mother became a Chi Omega at age 71. She, too, was from Bertie's generation. Her membership meant the world to her!

Below is the whole segment. Zeta just posted it on Facebook. Anderson Cooper gave her a turquoise bracelet and the Zetas received a 50 in flat screen tv for the house. Too cool!

Awwww...life really is about timing. This is an instance where the timing was perfect - pledged and initiated! Talk about fulfilling a dream!!

How true Shirley. Thank goodness the timing was right for Bertie and ZTA to get reacquainted, but what a sad day for us all.

I'm sad that she didn't have more time to enjoy being a ZTA, but I'm glad she realized her dream of becoming a ZTA before she passed away.

I hope she rests in peace.
