Jean was a good friend for more than 50 years. We stayed at each other's homes, we shared the love of our champion Cardigan Welsh Corgis and we served together on our national Board of Directors. Jean was an incredibly talented artist, I saved and framed her Christmas cards over the years, bought her calendars and prints of her paintings. When I became an author I asked Jean if she would be interested in doing book covers for me. She created original water color paintings for four of my books, and her beloved 'Sookie,' pictured, was featured on two more of my books. There's an entire corner of our entry devoted to The Clifford Gallery.
Jean, I'll miss our very long friendship.
