Dear Amy, Larry and Bernice, I was so sad to learn of "Cousin Jeanne's" passing. I always loved being around her and spending time with her when I was a child. She was fun. She was influential to me as a teenager, exposing me to important ideas about women. We saw her - and all of you - too infrequently. Deepest condolences to all of you at this time. With love, Jeanette (Bernie's youngest)

Please allow me to extend my heartfelt condolences for the recent loss of your dear love one,Jeanne. The death of a love one can cause pain and sadness. Please be comforted by the words of Psalms 46:1 that GOD is our refuge and strength, and help in times of distress.
