Patsy was busy - there were gifts to be dropped off, visitors to greet, last minute errands to run, especially since the family would be leaving Boulder the morning after Christmas to spend time in Charlevoix.
.
Patsy sent out her annual Christmas letters - one to Bob Anderson of South Charleston, W.Va., once a business manager of Patsy Paugh Ramsey's.
Anderson -"Patsy said JonBenét was enjoying her first real year in school and that she had already been moved ahead in first-grade math. She said her daughter enjoyed participating in talent and modeling pageants. She said JonBenét was named Royale Tiny Miss and Colorado Little Miss Christmas."
.
Anderson then quoted from Patsy's letter: "Her (JonBenét's) teacher says she's so outgoing she will never have trouble delivering an oral book report."
.
Patsy sent out her annual Christmas letters on December 24th. They would arrive at many homes on the day after Christmas, just hours before the calls came to tell them JonBenét was gone.

Dear Friends & Family,
It's been another busy year at the Ramsey household. Can't believe its almost over and time to start
again!
Melinda (24) graduated from Medical College of Georgia and is working in Pediatric ICU at Kennestone Hospital in Atlanta. John Andrew (20) is a Sophomore at the University of Colorado.
Burke is a busy fourth grader where he really shines in math and spelling. He played flag football this fall and is currently on a basketball binge! His little league team was #1. He's lost just about all of his baby
teeth, so I'm sure we'll be seeing the orthodontist in 1997!
JonBenét is enjoying her first year in 'real school.' Kindergarten in the Core Knowledge program is fast paced and five full days a week. She has already been moved ahead to first grade math. She continues to enjoy participating in talent and modeling pageants. She was named "America's Royale Tiny Miss" last summer and is Colorado's Little Miss Christmas. Her teacher says she is so outgoing that she will never have trouble delivering an oral book report!
John is always on the go traveling hither and yon. Access recently celebrated its one billion $$ mark in sales, so he's pretty happy! He and his crew were underway in the Port Huron to Mackinac Island yacht race in July, but had to pull out mid way due to lack of wind. (Can you believe that?) But, his real love is the new 'old looking' boat, Grand Season, which he spent months designing.
I spend most of my 'free time' working in the school and doing volunteer work. The Charlevoix house
was on the home tour in July and will likely appear in one of the Better Homes & Gardens publications in
1997. On a recent trip to NYC, my friend and I appeared amid the throng of fans on the TODAY show. Al Roker & Bryant actually talked to us and we were on camera for a few fleeting moments!
We are all enjoying continued good health and look forward to seeing you in 1997! One final note ... thank you to all my 'friends' and my dear husband for surprising me with the biggest, most outrageous 40th birthday bash I've ever had! We'll be spending my actual birthday on the Disney Big Red Board over the new year!
Merry Christmas and much love,
The Ramseys
