Jessie was a lovely lady and a kind roomate to my aunt at Braemar.
She would read to my aunt and sing hymns but she couldn't hear my aunt sing along with her. We wrote in Jessie's book to let her know that my aunt sang along and she was pleased with that knowledge. Jessie knew my aunt could not see.

Before I met Jessie, I remember her as Mrs. Lapp and her good friend Mrs. Conn walking downtown together as they chatted along.

Jessie was a pleasure to know.
Sincere condolences to the Jessie's family.
