myfbil wrote: Thank you all for your comments. MAYBE I left out one important "twist" to the story. This lady had come here from Haiti about 25 years ago. She is black; my husband and I are white. I think she's an extremely special lady. Update: We just exchanged Christmas cards. I do hope she'll travel to our state to join our family for a huge annual cook-out this summer. She'll be pleasantly surprised to find out some members of our family are African American (from Ghana)!
