The Betsy has left a new comment on your post "Joyce Deveau Kennedy and Frederick Kennedy--The Gr...":
Thank you for this. Joyce was my aunt and very dear to me as she was to all our family. We miss her greatly and it is a comfort to see how well she was thought of by so many people. She was a lovely person and so well suited in Fred. He is also a truly great person. Anyway just wanted to thank you, it made my day to see the picture and to know someone else thought the world of her too.

I
was talking about her today because of the Perseid showers--which I
could not see because of clouds, last night. Anyhow, I was remembering
getting up in the middle of the night, as Joyce did, and standing with her on the
demi-lune balcony watching the Leonid showers for half an hour. As I was
saying last night and today, she and Fred did such wonderful work the
likes of which no one is doing now. I wrote her into the ending of the
preface to MELVILLE BIOGRAPHY: AN INSIDE NARRATIVE but she died 2 months
too soon to read it. What a terrible loss, personally and
professionally.
