His first Paris apartment was on Rue de Raynouard, and after that, he moved to an apartment on Rue de Babylon. He sent me packages of cookies and candy when I was at school (Le Rosey) in Switzerland (Rolle et Gstaad). September 2, 2025

Dad painted quite well, but did not sell many paintings. His books did not bring a lot of income. He made enough playing bridge to have a deluxe apartment in Paris, and a large villa on the Cote D’Azure (at Juan les Pins). September 2, 2025

Jean Duval was a contract bridge player/gambler, with an international rating, and a Legion of Honor boutonierre, so he always was able to find a game. September 2, 2025

My Dad —Jean Duval never came to USA, and did not speak any English at all. He was an author and painter, had a villa on the French Riviera at St Juan les Pins and taught me to shoot a rifle. September 2, 2025

In 1958 I was a passenger on a Super-Constellation flying NYC to Paris. That took about 11 hours, and we landed briefly in Ireland. September 2, 2025
