My Name Is….

Where did I get my name you ask?  Well, my great-great-great-grandmother had the same first name.  My mom’s mom’s mom’s mom’s mom was Della.  That’s a lot of moms.

The middle name isn’t as cut and dry.  Mom and dad like the old country song Jolé Blon by Roy Acuff.  Jolee is a variation and was created by combining part of my mom Jocelyn’s name and Lee which is a common occurrence on my dad’s side.  Grandpa Lee (Leroy), Grandma KathLEEn, and Uncle Randy has the middle name Lee.  So Jolee just worked.  That’s how I got named.
