Adios! Friend Miss-Shirley

 
Some days harbor bad-news---today...Miss Shirley died
 
I knew this "worthy" Independent-Individual through
business dealings; she was a Realtor, I was a player; we
did some hefty dealings over the years; she saved me---
a "few" times (from my "aggressive" penchants). Thanks!

This "Lady" lived Honesty to a fault; I appreciate that.
 
One day we were out surveying the market searching for
the next "windfall" when she allowed that her "net worth"
was well over the $2-mil mark; I congratulated her. She
said that two things she had always coveted was a shiny
convertible and an in-ground swimming pool. At the time,
Miss Shirley had pushed on past the 60-year milestone and
worried that people might talk about an "old-lady" in a sports car.
 
Being "friends", I impressed upon my friend that life is short
and that she should enjoy those "trophies": convertible and pool.
 
About a year later, she drove the shiny convertible; I applauded
her decision; absent rain or snow, she always had the top down.
 
I reckon she never "plunged" into the swimming pool. So Sorry!
  
Here is one of the "Good" ones, Lord! Take "special" care of her!
Have her say "Hello!" to my friends; hopefully, I'll see you all---there!?

We will surely miss her smile!

Amen!

A sad Adieu! Proud to have known you! Mon Amie! Carl
