Mary always was kind to me. She gave me seeds, vegatables from the garden and food to eat on the way home.

Once when I cut my hand, she gave me a Band-Aid. That brought me back to a time, when I was little kid, and my Mom was taking care of me! A nice warm feeling I haven't felt for probably 50 years!
