Gladys was my best friend at Barnard. Our rooms were across from one another. I practiced my French with her and she taught me a Creole lullaby. On occasion she lent me her fur coat. She visited my family in northeast Pennsylvania and went to mass with me at St. Adalbert's church. I was invited to double date with her and ended up marrying the Columbia man I was matched with. Unfortunately I lost track of Gladys after she graduated and moved to Paris, although I did receive an invitation to her wedding. I remember her with great fondness.

I was a classmate of Gladys at Barnard, a year or so behind her. She was my friend across the hall. She taught me a lullaby in Creole and lent me her fur coat on occasion. She came to the Pennsylvania town where I was born and went to the local Catholic Church for Sunday mass. I still have a photo of her from our college days. She and I went on a double date; my guy was the man I eventually married. She thought he had "class". I think of her often. Janet
