Oh the nights we made them endure with all the guys over. Eating their food and using their home. Those were great times. It really was a second home with the amount of time we spent hanging out over those high school years. But she was always kind. And willing to open their doors to us. I remember shaving heads in the back yard one summer, and cranking the tunes till the wee hours of the morning. She would even drive me home the odd time. Such a kind and giving woman. She had one of the pinkest bathrooms I'd ever seen back at the old place on meadow brook. She will be missed.
