MARY VIRGINIA SKINNER

My heart goes out to u sorry about your mother Brian Evans

Dear Jenna you were a great friend, and brilliant co-writer on several shows including Burnett, and a very funny person. We had some interesting times- your house, full of the art deco, was so amazing. We'll miss you! Hope you're back together with Dick, doing great comedy sketches.

I grew up in Atlanta, GA. My Uncle Jack was her brother (we adopted him into our family). I can't tell you how many times he talked about your mom. He was so proud of her and what she had done. He was a wonderful man and really meant the world to us. I remember laying on the floor watching "the facts of life" and him telling me she wrote for the show. He thought her life was really amazing. His favorite joke he credited to her was if somebody showed you a baby who wasn't very cute you should...
