I was saddened to read the passing of “Mrs. Watson” in today’s Vancouver Sun. I was instantly taken back to a memory which I would like to share with Jack in particular. I remember coming up the back stairs and walking into the kitchen with freshly baked cookies EVERYWHERE!!! Mrs. Watson was the only person I knew then who did MAJOR batch-baking of cookies. They were everywhere!!!! and the smell was amazing. As a little girl Mrs. Watson was so friendly and her laugh was “hearty”, which is a funny thing to remember from close to 50 years ago! Sullivan Heights (David Drive) was a special area to grow up in, and wonderful neighbours like “Mrs. Watson” were the reason for this. Sincerely, Diana Higgins (nee Barnes from Casewell Street)
