Dovina, This was an unexpected journey down memory lane. Very sweet and nostalgic. It touched me enough to give my Dad a call! Good work.

Ethel had an honorable and loving man in that one...
I like the way I can picture him... so quietly determined...his Ethel would have her lily.
Very good.

Thanks for the comments. I've always had a little trouble knowing when the piece is "complete" or if it still needs some work. This piece I've been writing and rewriting for over 10 yrs!

I was just starting to become interested; then read the last line and it was lost.

I liked all but the last 3 lines.
