This morning, two angry drivers honked at me and another rolled down his window and cursed while I was crossing busy 9th avenue south on a pedestrian priority crosswalk.

In the waning years of WW II, we were living in Rockville Center, Long Island, I was about 12 and dad was dying of a brain tumor. Mom said NYC was no place for a widow to bring up a child, so she packed us up and we took a train to her childhood home in Detroit Lakes Minnesota. That's where she met and married this widower. He was a clothing salesman and outdoorsman.
