I have always loved her name. From now on, each banana I eat will be a silent tribute to her inventiveness and humorous approach.

Wow.  Anna Banana is dead.  She was one of my 1st 10 correspondents in 1978.  I witnessed a performance by her in Toronto as part of the "7 across, 11 down" festival in 1998 (wch I was also in).  If you want to see covers of her incredible VILE magazine go here: http://idioideo.pleintekst.nl/SMILEs.html .  For me, her passing represents the end of a particularly vital era of Mail Art.  Long may she live!!
