Unlikely friends

     There was no reason to expect that Connie and I would become friends, but we did. At family gatherings we usually wound up chatting with each other almost to the exclusion of others. I will always smile over the memory of our sharing at last year's family Christmas. We were two old ladies unaccustomed to drinking alcohol, so we ordered one drink with an extra glass and shared the drink between us. That may have been a first for the server, and it was a lovely symbol of the way we shared the role of "Gram" to the Russell grandchildren. Safe passage, Connie.
