Thinking of you all today and Jamie's funeral. I so want to be there to give tribute to this awesome lady. A true southern gem.
Jamie, as you know, was part of a college group from Columbia College my Mom, Kathleen Fiquet , was in. The group was called "Round Robins" and they kept a cyclical letter up for sixty years. It was going around in a year to as many as ten of them. They went on trips to each other's homes and I got to go on five of those trips. I hosted them the year after my Mom died 2009 here in Sedalia, Mo. and they brought their daughters. What a great time!
I remember being in St. Louis in about 2005 with eight of them (age 80) in a limousine! They had the best time! Amazing group of women and Jamie was the leader of the pack for sure!
They kept in touch for over sixty years. The last four robins had a conference call about a year ago and Jamie was as sharp as ever!
She inspires me every second I think of her. I got to enjoy a visit with her in her home years ago and it was so fun. She had her miniature bottle of champagne and she was organizing everything for her girls to receive. I played tennis with her when she was 80 and she beat me very well!
Adieu my friend Jamie, you are a Robin in heaven now.
I will create a character one day that is you! Love you all!
Please keep in touch you beautiful kids!
