Weekly Photo Challenge: Wonder

November 12, 2011 by Ann Marquette

Yes, this is a “wonder” … it is ME with Audrey Hepburn in Dublin, Ireland. Someone took this of me, the photographer for the UNICEF events with Audrey there as UNICEF Ambassador. I am still in wonder/amazement that this experience was gifted to me. This will always hold a special place in my heart. She was an amazing woman.

I would be dead!! If I had met the amazing Ms. Hepburn in person….I would have keeled over and died right there on the spot! I hope you have this picture framed somewhere prominent in your home! That is so awesome!!

  It was an amazing experience for me. She was down to earth, kind, soft spoken, gentle lady. I was very blessed over those two days; and had another experience seeing her at a UNICEF event in Atlanta in 1991.

That must have been a beautiful time, and a beautiful moment, with Audrey.

Beautiful picture, Ann! What year was it?

  It was the beginning of even more amazing and beautiful moments.
  Without going to my files to find the exact time, if my memory serves me right it was in 1986.

I honestly can’t tell you how jealous I am of you at this moment! I love Audrey as much as I would love a member of my family, and i wasn’t even born when she was alive – although i desperately wish I was! Which is why I wish I could have been in your shoes at the very moment! 🙂 Thanks Ann!
