Thanks for sharing. Looks like she will keep editing Buffett's letters.

:)

 

“She has an analytical mind and she keeps learning,” said Warren E. Buffett, the billionaire investor and a close friend. “We males never do that. We quit at about 15. We just think we know it all. At 85, she is interested in learning more.”

 

Ms. Loomis also plans to continue her regular conversations with Mr. Buffett and assist him with his writings. After editing the Berkshire Hathaway shareholder letter for nearly 40 years, she likes to remind Mr. Buffett that he still needs her help. She said that dangling participles and the passive voice were persistent problems.

“I kid him,” she said, “that he missed the class on active verbs.”
