[Oe List ...] Completed life of Michaela Rose Welch

[Jean Long]

Many folks are responding on the link to the celebration of Michaela's life
which the family has shared with so many friends and family.

Vida, Mark and Catherine - and community - I would like to share this story
about the first time I was cared for by the devious duo.

I moved to the Denver House from 4 years in Brussels in 1988.  I moved into
the "Epleys old room" which is how we designated rooms back then.  It was
on the third floor of a beautiful Denver mansion just off City Park. The
third floor had been the ballroom in the house.  A day or two after I
arrived I was talking with these bright, inquisitive girls, Vida and
Michaela Welch (arround 9 and 11 or so).  I had been out of the country for
4 years and knew nothing of current music or videos.  They said they had
gotten a video of "Jumping Jack Flash" with Whoopi Goldberg (who?) and did
I want to watch it with them that night?

My first experience of Whoopi!!  We laughed until we almost threw up.  It
is still in my top 10.  From that night on, Vida and Michaela and Mark and
Catherine sort of adopted this single lady and for every eventfulness that
could be created I was invited to share it with them.  Welches - thank you
for sharing an experience of family that changed my life.
I am forever grateful,
Jean
