Government didnt come around and tell us we were poor. She was always finding someone worse off that we would help. I remember that about her, this kindness. She could be firm. In an even smaller town where i was born of 800 people and we lived across a little park from the railroad station. In those days the biggest Treat Wasnt the Ice Cream Truck coming around.
