I'm one of many nieces traveling now from her native MS. I love all my aunts but she was my favorite. We all have to admit we have favorites for different reasons. We called her Aunt JEAN, and I see that as an acronymn: J is for jewel as she was sought after and the pride of her family, and of great value to all she touched. E is for Elegant as she was tasteful and stunning with such grace. A is for authentic adventurer since she was real and traveled a lot.
N is for nice because she chose her words with care. I admired her greatly and value most the personal advice she gave me at the onset of her illness. I choose to remember her leading, smiling with Rosy Cheeks and doing things with Class.
