First I would like to thank the poster for "reading my mind." You took the words right out of my mouth. Thank you for being so understanding. I meant no harm nor was I trying to bring down Felicia in any way, shape, or form. I would never do that to her.

Fee knew there was something different about me than the other classmates. I don't know what she saw in me, but she confided in me about her personal business even though I never asked. She sensed I was the type of person who mind my own business, and I didn't bother anyone. She was absolutely right.

Everything she told me was very personal; and even though this began back in the Fall semester of 1970 (7th grade), I still haven't told anyone. She would even ask for my opinion on certain matters. I was very honest with her, even though I didn't agree with her. She respected that, and she didn't "knock me" for my opinion. I didn't just tell her what she wanted to hear (like the other classmates), I calmly told her the truth.

When other classmates ask her questions about herself, she wouldn't tell them what she told me. I witnessed this more than once. I didn't associate with her, though. She even sat directly behind me in our health class. In other classes, she sat near her associates, but she would approach me as if I was her mentor. I was puzzled because she was two years older than us.

Incidentally, she was in my cooking class, and we learned something new about tomatoes. She answered the question that puzzled many of us because we were divided, and she repeated it until we got the sense of it.

I felt she was much wiser than me and the other students. Sometimes she would watch me from a distance just to make sure no one would mess with me. She was this way with a few other students, too, but she didn't confide in them. She knew the trouble makers at school, but Felicia was polite and brave. No one messed with her.

I knew of her aunt and her sister Terry. When her aunt walked toward us in our health class, I heard the entire conversation. I was really impressed with how Felicia calmly reassured her aunt (even though her aunt was in the 9th grade), and we were in the 7th grade. Her aunt walked away relieved knowing that Felicia would handle the problem.

I even knew where she lived and other classmates who lived near Fee, but she didn't know where I lived.

Now as far as her videos are concerned, that's not the Felicia I knew. She was totally opposite. However, I understand that people change over the years, but she had a "soft spot" in her heart. I even saw her contact information, and I started to send her a letter first. I wasn't going to knock her; I was just going to tell her how delicious her recipes looked and that I wanted to come by and sample some of them. Plus, I just wanted to catch up on "old times," since I only attended Fremont High School for the 10th grade, (but I didn't see Felicia there; now I know why), and I decided to attend a high school that was much closer to me since we moved miles away from the neighborhood.

I wanted to attend her funeral, but I didn't see any information regarding it.

Now if Felicia saw those negative comments from those posters about me, she would really give them a "piece of her mind," even if they were a follower of her videos, plus she would demand an apology.

Once again, I was just sharing fond memories of her. I didn't mean to offend anyone.
