Yesterday was the 20th birthday of my darling granddaughter, Caitlin: she is the only child of my daughter, Frances and her father, Jim who comes from Ghana. The first inter-racial couple I knew were Marion and Irv way back in the 50's and 60's. I was always impressed with how sweet and gentle they both were. We used to play endless games of bridge and even this, unlike many other couples, did not bring out any anger in them. I guess when my marriage ended, we somehow drifted apart and I haven't seen either of them for many years, but I have never forgotten what wonderful people they are. I can only imagine the depth of your loss, especially for Irv after so many years. My heartfelt condolences to the entire family. I am sure that Marion's spirit will enrich your lives for years to come.
