Personal Notes:
Trisha Davis lived behind our back yard in Monterey, California, 1977-1979. Our husbands were students at the Naval Postgraduate School. Lee Davis was about the same age as our daughter, Michelle and they became best buddies. It didn't matter if they were playing and I was watching them or Trisha was watching, one of us would take the girls in at bath time, in the tub they went together!
Trisha was a good southern cook and I learned a lot from her. She passed away in 2020.
