I don't know much about her, where she was born etc, but a person named NOEL JETTE died in MT in 1925 close to Deer Lodge Prison, and I wonder if that could be her Grandmother etc?
EDIT: Just found out, Ms. Jette was born in 1945 in San Bernardino. Now I may call ZODE to ask him if he knew her.
I'm curios as to the connection between Ross and Noel. Ross lived in her house, but how did he come to be associated with her? I think Ross could be more than he appears, as far as intelligence goes.
I think she's a mental health professional now. She specializes in children from abusive families and/or alcohol-drug related backgrounds. Perhaps that was the connection. Although she was likely a student at the time, maybe she was helping Ross in some way back then.
So while others might have shunned him for being so weird, she likely found him interesting and sought to help him. They were all hippies remember. Maybe she felt sorry for him and let him rent a room from her because he hated living in the Y.
