This got me thinking back. The second place my parents rented was a two-family home. The landlords become very close friends w/my parents. The lady babysat us regularly. She had no kids and she love us kids. My parents stayed in touch ever since, no matter where we moved. My mom was very close to the lady and she recently went to the husband’s funeral. My brother went too. They’re all back east. I probably would’ve gone if I were there. Maybe those were different times. I don’t know. Don’t want to date myself (my psychologist told me to date other people) I think our landlords/friends enriched our lives and I have fond memories of them. Dear people.
