We were neighbors for over 30 years, and friends over 50.
Many a morning, a call came from Mrs Cozinni. Who is this? Anthony?, Stephen?, oh David. I need some eggs, milk, butter or a cup of sugar. Meet me at the fence,
Waiting At the back fence was Dolly. She was ready with a joke, a one liner and that HUGE smile and trademark laugh. Comfortable in her own skin, curlers, a robe, she could care less. She had movie star good looks, and her trademark red hair as vibrant as her personality.
Not one to whisper, you always knew when she was around, yet were more aware when she was not. She had a genuine interest in your life. She spoke her mind and said what others only dream of saying. Even her zingers were done with love and She always made you smile. If you were lucky, you knew Dolly.
This world will be a quieter and less loved place without her, and that is sad.
My hearts goes out to my old neighbors and friends! I am sorry for your loss!
