Jeanne Winsor Watson

To the Watson family, please accept my deepest sympathy for your loss. I remember your Mom and Dad visiting my parents cabin on Lake Sylvia during the summer for a day. They enjoyed the pontoon rides. I also enjoyed the times that I pheasant hunted with Ted, Bruce (I was not aware that he had also passed away) and Craig in the 60's to Granite Falls, MN along with my father and brother Bill.
You are in my thoughts and prayers.

Uncle Ted and Aunt Jeanne were such wonderful people and I will always remember them coming to Watertown, SD to visit during the pheasant hunting seasons. My father, Warren, and mother Kim always enjoyed the good times and shared many of the family stories and background with us. Jeanne leaves such a wonderful legacy with her father's parenting program and Ted was always such a kind and genuine uncle. They are both remembered in my thoughts and prayers.

Thank you for sharing your mother's beautiful smile and attitude toward life in this description. We are so sad you have lost her, and send you our love. We know your many wonderful memories will help you through this time of grieving, and though you will always miss her, she will remain alive in your hearts and memories. Her legacy continues in wider circles as well - one of those consisting of an on-going round robin of letters among college friends (over 40 years now), inspired by your...
