Yes, a passion for history. I visited Jean ten years ago and we talked family history when we discovered a connection: my great-aunt Edith Cox Juniper married Lemuel Keffer, a preacher, an uncle (?) or cousin (?) of Jean. Occasionally, when I was a child, Lemuel and Edith visited Edith’s siblings in the Meaford area, including my grandfather, Ernie Cox. Please accept my condolences.
