A Lesson in Etiquette
My first neighbour was an older gentleman who had recently been widowed. Even though his wife was a long-time baker, he had still found the time and energy to bake me a welcoming cake. The icing was leaky, and the cake was dry, but the kind thought made my day. He really made me feel at home and part of the neighbourhood, even if he was the only one to welcome me to the apartment complex.

Very touching. I saw PF on the same concert tour on April 16, 1994 in Pasadena, CA. They were amazing and the light show was out of this world.
Oh this was so sad 🥺 Sending you hugs ❤️

Great wishes still make great memories, and that's a great Haiku.
