Nice tribute here to a dear woman.

I remember her being my best friend in the last years of her life. I took her to dinner twice a week and she would tell me about everything from the 30's when she lived in Chicago on the Loop & how she used to be a teacher on one of the first calculators ever made for doing the books at GreyHound Busline. We would talk about her dad and how he used to haul gravel 14 hours a day to build the first road from Brule to Superior. We talked about how she knocked her sisters two front teeth out with a broom stick when they were little and how she still felt bad about it. We would talk about football & how much she hated my dad's wife & how much more hair I used to have. We would make beef stew on football game days when all my other friends were in the bar watching the Packer game. We would high-five when Brett Favre threw a touchdown against the Vikings and she would say "Shit!" in a quiet little voice when the other team scored points.
