She was my neighbor. I was a nanny for some people and the kids called her catlady cause of it. It was always a "hi" or a wave as I went by her place and for a year it was that way..then I moved. She was still my neighbor, but, she was 6 blocks further away. 6 years later, we started hanging out. She was a ray of sunshine in my life and her smile was infectious beyond belief. She started going places with me and then started coming to where I live nearly everyday. She was afraid she wouldn't be liked by people where I live, but, they absolutely loved her. We miss her greatly and I cry just thinking about her. My only regret? Not hanging out with her sooner. R.I.P. Shelly. You will always be Tony's halfpint.
