Mrs Weir was the mother of my closest childhood friend. She was always warm and welcoming. Just as I remember as a young man Mrs. Weir continued to seek new things. At 70 years old she went back to college. Somewhere along the way I lost touch with her son Ted but had great love for them both. If Ted should ever see this he should know they’re still very much on my mind and in my heart.
