Bread & Butter Notes

This morning after bath, laundry and chores Gladys
took up her pen and got started with her bread and
butter notes. With each card she read, memories surfaced
and happy moments enjoyed again. So many great cards and
wonderful gifts from friends and relatives.

Dick went to the Otter Post Office and bought three more
books of stamps. Gladys does her best to support this
little Post Office.

Gladys got a special card in the mail today from Lorna and
Spencer Antonik. Lorna is Kay Martini's daughter. Kay was like
a daughter to Gladys. In the card were seeds from
Kay's Columbine patch for Gladys to plant in her garden.
Kay passed away this summer
and is sorely missed by friends, family and neighbors.

"As colorful as those flowers are they are nothing compared to
how colorful Kay was," says Gladys. "I really miss her."

Kay loved her flowers and her garden. Gladys is looking forwards
to new color in her garden in the years to come.
