Miss JeanThere are some people you like the moment you meet them. They are the type that possess a warm, welcoming spirit. You get the feeling you've known for as long as you can remember. That would describe Miss Jean to a tee. We clicked the moment after we were introduced. I will sum up the events of the eveing by stating, "A fun time was had by all." This would be attributed to Miss Jean's candid conversation and laughter.
Miss Jean and MariaA few years would pass before I had the chance to be in her company again. Much fun and a lot of laughs were on the agenda once again. "What number are you?" would be the title to one of the more hilarious question/answer/conversations at the last family reunion. Miss Jean was right there leading some of the family into uproarious laughter. Folks had tears in their eyes from laughing so hard. It's moments like that you cherish/treasure. I thought about those fun times when I learned Miss Jean died today. Though I am saddened to learn of this, I am thankful I had the chance to spend some time in her fun loving presence. Miss Jean was one in a million.
