Last April I posted a blog about stumbling upon a fabulous Estate Sale in the Highland Park area of Dallas.  (Click here to re-visit)

I was so lucky to purchase this beautiful Coral Rose Necklace in the sale. 


I have worn it so many times and received lovely compliments.  I love telling the story of how I came upon it.  I researched Ms. Franey and ended up purchasing the right to publish her olympic photo on my blog. 

Just two weeks ago, Ms Franey passed away at the age of 97.  Such a wonderful writeup in the Dallas Morning News about her life.  I am so honored to think of her each time I wear this beautiful necklace.

It's kind of hard to read, but you can double-click to enlarge.

Beautiful lady.
