Hearing of the passing of my cousin Jean brought back memories of times with her. I remember when my siblings and I would play the board game Clue when we visited Jean. We used to look forward to those trips and those games. Then years ago, I took a trip to France. My travel companions and I met up with Jean in Paris. We had a nice evening with her as she helped us with our meal ordering. I also offer my thoughts and prayers to her family.
