YEARS AGO AFTER I MOVED FROM BANGOR ,ME TO NEW HAMPSHIRE..THEY ALWAYS STOPPED TO VISIT ON WAY TO GRAMMY AND GRAMPIES CAMP IN MAINE ..MOST OF TIMES IN THE SUMMER THEY WOULD TAKE MY NOREEN WITH THEM TO PLAY WITH THE GIRLS ..WHEN I READ NOREENS BLOG ,WAS A BIT SURPRISED TO READ THE GIRLS WOULD JUMP OFF THE ROW BOAT NAKED !!! GOD FORBID !!! NO HARM DONE I GUESS...THEY ALWAYS ENJOYED BEING TOGETHER..ONE SUMMER WHEN THEY LIVED IN ATHOL MASS.NOREEN SPENT A MO. WITH THEM..SO WE SAW THEM ALOT OVER THE YEARS..WE ATTENDED BOTH OF THE GIRLS WEDDINGS IN WORCESTER ..MASS. WHEN JEAN MOVED TO ATHENS GA. VISTED HER FAMILY MANY TIMES WHEN I VISITED MY DAUGHTER DEBBIE WHO LIVED IN GA. JEAN AND WATTS ALWAYS WELCOMED US WITH OPEN ARMS .. THEY WERE HOST AND HOSTESS WITH THE MOSTESS.!!! AFTER JEAN ACCEPTED HER GREAT JOB IN MICHIGAN .FRAN AND JACK MOVED TO FL TO BE NEAR TRUDY AND WARM CLIMATE ..JEAN AND FAMILY VISITED MANY TIME AT HOLIDAYS ,AND THEY ALWAYS INVITED ME TO BE WITH THEM ..SO I GOT TO SEE THEM ALL QUITE OFTEN .I LIVE IN FL IN THE WINTER MONTHS . WHEN TRUDY MADE PLANS TO GET MARRIED ,JEAN WAS SUCH A BIG HELP TO HER .. THE DAY OF THE WEDDING JEAN WAS SO BEAUTIFUL WALKING DOWN THE ISLE IN HER LOVELY LAVENDER LONG GOWN..
