Not sure what to say?

Darlene was my first cousin. My mother was her mother Belle’s youngest sister, Helen.
I remember Darlene well. I bet, though, that no one knew she won 1st Place in a televised quiz show in Seattle while she visiting my family. She was fresh out of college and unmarried. The premise of the show was that she was in jail unless she could answer questions. She won household items including pots and pans.
She much older than I was but I remember her as witty and kind.
