I was sad to realize that I was too late to finally reconnect with Marie-Jeanne. She was an important part of my teens. Even if we were 3 years apart, our birthdays were only 4 days apart, creating a special bond, then. She thought me how to dance, got me one of my first job, we were having fun together. Now, whenever I hear the Everly Brothers, I always thought of her because it was her favorite duo then. That picture is the only one I have of both of us together! She will be missed for sure. My deepest sympathies goes out to Mariette, Christopher and Gerd and I would Jeannine her sister and her husband John to whom she was very close! Rest in peace, my dear cousin Marlene

"I wish you could see the ripple of love you are creating on this earth, because then you would never doubt your life has meaning. You do not need to be famous or go do missionary work in order to make an impact in this world. Helping a child feel valued, gifting someone with an unexpected kindness, tending to a wounded bird, in these ways and more, you are building a legacy that will live on forever."
