Trekking down Memory Lane with the Clayton Kids!! (And others!!)
We ran into Barbara's old friend Marguerite Hardin - and her 91 year old dad! Barbara and Marguerite have been friends since kindergarten.
Family mythology has it that Dad came home after my birth and said, "Well, what shall we name the new baby?" And Barbara, who thought Marguerite's older sister Donna Jean was the epitome of sophistication and glamor, said, "Donna Jean."
Dad had had a girl friend named Donna also - Mom said that Dad liked her more than she liked him! Imagine that!!
And so, that's how I came to be known in the Clayton annals as Donna Jean!
What you find on Memory Lane!!
