A few decades ago, I visited Jeanne at her family's house in New York. Her parents were welcoming in the most relaxed way; I felt instantly at home. I remember some of my conversations with Blair: telling me what he was doing in the garden and chatting about everyday topics at the kitchen table. It was a wonderfully pleasant stay. Over the years, I called the Allen residence many times to contact Jeanne; whenever her dad answered, he always took a few minutes to ask how I was and what I was doing. Through many conversations and correspondences with Jeanne, I understood Blair's many accomplishments and kindnesses. I can't think of a more kindly, sincere, gracious and approachable person. My thoughts and love to Jeanne and all her family in celebrating Blair's life.
