Jennie Lee was the daughter of William Clinton Cockrell (1889-1961) and Jessie Fae Shaw (1902-1988). She was next to the youngest in a family of seven children and one of the two girls. At 14 years of age, she lost her battle with leukemia and the following year her only sister would die at 26 from Hodgkin's. Thus the Cockrell family lost their only daughters and sisters early in life and the vaccum left in the hearts of those remaining were never filled.


A life so young released to heaven, left on Earth we wonder why but some are sent among us briefly 'Some have Spirits meant to fly.'
