Save the date! Los Angeles, June 25, 2023
At last! We will have an LA get-together once again, on Sunday, June 25, 2023. It will be an afternoon event, likely in the San Fernando Valley and celebrate the June birthdays of both Jeanette and Nelson.
At this point we haven’t yet finalized the location (probably still in the San Fernando Valley) – so Save the Date! Details to be posted here as finalized.
Those of you coming from out-of-town and/or wanting to do the “driving tour” to visit the Jeanette-Nelson homes and landmarks should plan to join us on Saturday as well.
The Birmingham, Alabama connection…
Just returned from a short TV interview on “Talk of Alabama” morning show. Will post a link later when the network posts it!
I’m in Birmingham for a book signing event today and a silent auction, raising money for a scholarship in the name of Jeanette’s friend Lily May Caldwell. Lily May was the entertainment editor for the “Birmingham News”, helped start the Miss Alabama contest, and was a good friend of Jeanette’s. The auction proceeds will be presented today to Kevin Hill, representing the Miss Alabama organization. Will update this post later…
Update: After a wonderful nostalgic afternoon, we raised $540 honoring Lily May Caldwell for the Miss Alabama scholarship. The TV interview is at this link.
