Aww - shot down...but with class. You showed us the memory very well. She's not the only one who is a good writer - so is the 'zippo' man.

Outta my league.  She once confided to someone - not me - that she was looking for a man who "could support her in the manner to which she'd like to become accustomed."  (cf the red Cammaro ) But this stuff really happened!  It makes for pleasant memories and the kind of stories that improve with each re-telling.  PS - She was quite a writer.

Re: As Cyrano Might Have Said
