I know some of you had more opportunity to spend time and get to know the happy healthy adult Mary Jane and I regret that it wasn't the same for me. I don't even have very many memories as younger children. I remember Mom bringing her home from the hospital 49 years ago. I recall her hair being so very curly and nearly unmanageable. What a great smile! Well, here's to Mary Jane!

I was very lucky to have known the happy, healthy adult Mary Jane! She was one of my best friends. Mary Jane, Judy and I used to spend alot of time together, laughing and making great memories. She had a quick wit and was compassionate. She loved her girls beyond measure. We played softball, and went out dancing. She was a good dancer, not so good at softball.
I remember thinking, after she died, that there were way too many memories that only she and I knew. I was afraid of losing them. Some have dropped out of my mind. But most are still here.
She loved a good thunderstorm. Something I didn't share with her while she was alive. But now I love them too, because they remind me of her. It thundered yesterday, on her birthday. I smiled and cried....
