Sadly, I have learned that Barbara passed away in September, 2018. Not from the brain tumor, I was told, but she died during surgery to repair a broken hip suffered in a fall. If anyone has more information, please share.

Wow! What a lovely surprise! I’ve gotten a number of replies and it is very heartwarming indeed. I’m guessing that’s a family member and we’ll be able to connect. Thank you so much. Jensen as so much admired in his years as a trusted reporter. Let me know what yo come up with, Oops.

Here is the NYTimes obituary for Jim. His second wife was named Rachel Gordon Jensen. He apparently has three daughters (I think one of them was named Heidi), but I can’t find them online. I’ll keep trying for you.
