55. My 90 something neighbor did the same thing
Wed Sep 20, 2017, 04:08 PM
Sep 2017

She lived down the street when I moved in 30+ years ago. Told me stories about sledding down 8th Ave (major street even 30 year ago) and horses pulling them back up for the next run. Retired art teacher. She LOVED computers and was so excited about the possibilities they presented. She was a firecracker!!!

Anyway... the two songs I remember from her funeral were "Hello Young Lovers" from The King and I and, for the Recessional, Camp Town Races!! We all left the church singing "Doo dah, doo dah!"
