“…She pioneered this field and began reporting some observations in 1958 [4]. She became a leading researcher and the chief “debunker” of various SIDS theories, chairing ultimately the Board of Trustees of the National SIDS Foundation and earning the title of “First Lady of SIDS” [5–8].…”

For us, the two remaining friends of the ''Three Graces'' (''The Three Golden Girls'') [1] to have the opportunity to pay homage to Dr Marie (Molly) Valdes-Dapena on the first anniversary of her passing on Saturday, September 29, 2012, is a sentimental and a loving journey. This homage addresses succinctly Molly's professional achievements, provides examples of her deep devotion to the family, accounts briefly the final years of her life, and devotes the remaining memorial notes to reflections of her personality that endeared her to so many people. For a considerably detailed report on Molly's professioal and personal life, the interested reader is referred to a 2006 report [1].

“…Molly authored or co-authored 75 articles in peer-reviewed journals, 7 books, 22 chapters of scientific books, and 14 other publications. Most publications relate to SIDS [1–22], but other topics include perinatal and pediatric biology and pathology [23–39], most notably “An Atlas of Fetal and Neonatal Histology” [36] and the book “Histology of Fetus and Newborn” [37].…”

With the radial immunodiffusion method postmortem serum immunglobulins are determinable. A critical estimation of postmortem IgA-, IgG- and IgM serum levels has to consider postmortem protein modifications and keeping sera at higher temperatures (+44 degrees C., + 20 degrees C.) For determinations at a later date sera must be kept at -35 degrees C. The measured postmortem serum levels of IgA and IgG in cases of sudden unexpected death in infancy correspond with the normal variation of value in healthy children of the same age. The lowest concentrations of IgG were found about the 5th. month in infancy. Many of the IgM levels were higher than the normal mean value in healthy children of the same age. This is not caused by postmortem influences. The higher IgM concentration in sera suggest an active immunological reaction before death.
