Leatrice Joy(1893-1985)

Her unusual given name is said by her grandsons to have come about in the following manner: she was supposed to be named "Beatrice" but on the way to her christening, her mother remembered that Leatrice's father had once been engaged to a girl by that name. So she went through the alphabet (Beatrice, Ceatrice, Deatrice) until she came to a version she liked.

[on Christian Science] It has shown me the meaning of life and the path we should follow, both in acknowledging our Creator and in finding contentment.
