She was the sister of my grand-mother. A very sweet person, cultured and clever. The reason the never married is easy to understand : she loved a man who was married and did not want him to divorce (he did not either). She had a lot of friends, men and women as well, and she used to travel every time she could in order to meet her friends, and the members of her family still living in Europe. I remember when she came for the last time in France. It was in January 1979, in order to see (for the last time), my mother who was very ill and passed in March. I have got a lot of photographs she took of my parents, grand-parents, sister and even my children.Although she was very popular, she never became rich. But she always was generous.
