Ongoing creative collaboration on children’s books across the Atlantic Ocean has helped bring Patti Lecron and her daughter Marianne Lecron closer together while achieving a family goal of leaving their children a literary, artistic, and entrepreneurial heritage.
Patti likes to say that curiosity brought her to France but it was a smile that kept her there.
“I’m from Oklahoma where people are very friendly and smile and nod at anyone who crosses their path,” she said. “While standing in a long line at a boarding gate waiting to find out why a flight to Paris was delayed, I looked in the direction of a French man who slipped under a rope pole barrier to jump the queue.
“I was thinking how embarrassed I would be if I were with him, and smiled to myself. He noticed that smile, and the rest is, well, history. We ended up getting married!”
