Jackie

Debbie

      The first of Jackie's daughters, of course, was Debbie, Deborah Joy Franklin, who initiated Joey and me into the ranks of uncleship for the first time almost half a century ago. I remember how fascinated Joey and I were by this miracle that brought a little girl into our lives. How proud I was to be able to hold her in my arms.
      For years and years Debbie was our only niece (and Dave Humsey our only nephew), and it seemed likely that Jackie's medical problems would prevent her from having any more kids. Debbie's grandma Minnie believed we should set up Debbie with Prince Charles, who seemed a decent catch, and perhaps set up Dave with Princess Anne. Don't know why things didn't work out that way.
      In the early 1970s she got married to Jerry Reed instead, who Joel speculated might be a relative of the Susan Reed who migrated out of North Carolina to Missouri to marry his own great-grandfather. The two of them had a couple of boys, Wayne and David, and for a few years, I recall, lived in Opa-Locka, Florida.
      She was divorced in the early 1980s, I believe, and later married Andrew Krauss, with whom in 1986 she had a daughter named Brittany. They live in Port Republic, Maryland.
     Unfortunately I haven't seen Debbie for several years -- last time at Win's memorial gathering, maybe? -- and have no photos available to me now.
