Some perhaps saw them as odd
mementoes. Those who had been privy to
her history knew better.
The set of steel stamps was
one of the first things she had ever asked her dad to buy her. She really didn’t know why – she just wanted
them.
The two barrel carburetor was
something she had kept from the Chevy she and her girlfriends drove in '61.
The cigar box held the
letters she received from Ted while he was stationed over there. Even after being notified - she kept hoping
for more letters and kept watching the mail.
She threw the brick into her television one night as Walter
Cronkite was reporting the number of dead American solders.
