On July 8th Helen King Murphy and I went to Cloverwood to enjoy lunch with Jinny -- we talked and talked and learned all about the Spear family: especially those darling greatgrandchildren! Jinny was cheerful, chatty and seemed to manage the oxygen with ease. We were stunned - and saddened - to read of her death. Memories of all those bridge games played 'back when' - when all our husbands were part of them - flooded back. We are grateful that Jinny was so happy in her 'new' home and especially grateful that we reconnected before she died. God bless.....Sincerely and with love,
