I believe they talked on the phone quite often. As far as people who were in the affiliate when she was in CT, there was Carol Lemieux and Joyce Liebowitz Sturm (Shirley Lebowitz’s daughter). As far as others who are not in the affiliate, there is Rick Fox (who lived in CT then), Mike Gosse (if anyone knows how to get ahold of him), and her daughters. She was extremely close to them and would probably know of her activities best. I’d love to mention Ruth Sager, but Jackie’s daughters told me that she passed away 2 days before Jackie. If you need any contact information, I have numbers for everyone but Mike.<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal>Lucia<o:p></o:p></p><p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p><div><div style='border:none;border-top:solid #E1E1E1 1.0pt;padding:3.0pt 0in 0in 0in'><p class=MsoNormal><b>From:</b> CT-NFB <ct-nfb-bounces@nfbnet.org> <b>On Behalf Of </b>Maryanne Melley via CT-NFB<br><b>Sent:</b> Tuesday, April 19, 2022 3:52 PM<br><b>To:</b> 'NFB of Connecticut Mailing List' <ct-nfb@nfbnet.org>; erival@comcast.net; 'Nathanael T.
