In Memory of Marge
My neighbor Marge died this evening. I was in the middle of writing today's page for my web site when I received the call. Marge was the grandmother to the little girl who's photo is on my homepage and on the welcome page of this blog.
I will miss her so much. She was as good a neighbor as anyone could ever hope to have. My heart truly goes out to her children and grandchildren, if I will miss her, I can't even imagine their sorrow.
I found it somewhat ironic that my topic for today was about laughing until you cry. I didn't know that when I started writing it I would be laughing and by the time I finished it I would be crying.
But Marge was as stubborn as I, so I know she would have wanted me to finish the page despite my tears. Her funeral is Saturday, and on that day I can share my sadness as well as my happy memories with her family and friends.
So I dedicate today's simple pleasure to Marge - laugh - I think she would have liked that, and I think she would have found the humor in writing this page and dedicating it to her on the day she died.

Did she rent or own? I'm looking to move, you see...
She had four wonderful children who bought the house for her! So I guess you could say she owned.
