When I was little and you were a grandmother, you could do backflips; this impressed me! I knew then I wanted to stay in shape until I was old.

Natalie – childhood annoyance friend

I didn’t know what “latchkey kid” meant, even when I made fun of you for “aksing” me a question. I hope people were more kind to you later on.

Father Reed – pastor at Holy Comforter

Thank you for making my move back into church easy, where I didn’t feel uncomfortable and I am not pushed to give money or be something I am not.
