Show Rose (1/1?/83) page )M Mr. K Mr. R automobile or something like that, that was the non-Jewish world. But my close~ frienda through all my college years was a fellow by the name of Bob Gansy, who was the editor of the Intermountain Jewish News for years and years. He and Ma~ Golrerg opened the paper, started the paper years ago. And I used to live at his house weekends in Denver, and his mother and father were just like my mother and father •. we were that close and that dear. We were over in West Colfax, and knew all kinds of people in West Colfax, and that was my life before I left and came to Utah and met this girl. At this point, don't ask me to account for it, but this ••• well, I can account for it •. she was everything you think you want in a wife. She was, she was a sweet person. You remember her real well, huh? Yeah, we stayed friends even though we got a divorce. We stayed friends and I used to date her on occasion after we were divorced for I don't know how many years after that. Then 12 or maybe 15 years ago, I was walking on Main Street and this woman nods 'hello' to me and keeps on going. I got 10 paces past who it was, and I turned around and I yelled at her and she turned around, and I said, "gee, after all we've been to each other, somehow it's t~it not right just to walk past each other with a nod". She said to me something like "I was hoping you'd do this", we had a cup of coffee and talked for a little while.-it Then may~.- 5 years ago I had a call from her and she was at the airport here leaving town. She told me that she was widowed. Once she made th telephone call, she said, "I've been in town for a week visiting my sister, and I debated whether I should call you the whole week. |
