SiO4 02/26/24 2:48:47 PM #13:	spikethedevil posted... Your mum was awesome. My parents thankfully are very liberal, hell on my dads best friends in school in the late 50s/early 60s was black. Thank you. I know this is wall of textie, but this was I was sent, so I will post it. I took out the names, that's all. I Get It. Its a Really Sensitive subject, you dont know me, I dont know you and its like opening an old wound. These things are Very Difficult to get over! I lost My brother in an auto accident in 1970, hed just turned 17. I Still Cry over him! And Ive shed Many tears over your mom. I was in love w/ her. We became secret friends. Back then was pretty racist, yes, even in Saratoga! It wasnt acceptable for a nice, white, Ivy League Bren like Joyce to hang w/ a bruthuh! But she came along when I had low self esteem and zero self-confidence and Befriended me. She didnt Care about my color. She saw me as just another Human Being! Another Mensch! We wrote secret little notes to each other Every Day and we Exchanged our favorite books. She lent me her copy of To Kill A Mockingbird, I lent her my copy of True Son, about a 1/2 bred Native American kid. She really helped me see life Frm a Good Perspective! No wonder Sh became a Teacher! What grades did she teach? But Jon, No Pressure Dude. If it makes you feel uncomfortable Dont Man! I Understand. Im just So Honored to have met you! Are you the youngest of the 3? C, G and You, J. And my Deepest, belated Condolences to you for your Wonderful mom, your brother Cameron and your dad. We werent lovers. It wasnt that kind of party, although I wished it was. --- "Whatever the reason you're on Mars, I'm glad you're there, and I wish I was with you." ~Carl Sagan.
