My Homage to Cindy

Instead of trying to cover her entire life, I will talk about a short

period of time when we spent a lot of time together.

Cindy, one of my two older sisters and the one living at home with me during the mid-60’s, was a close confidant and an important influence in my life. She was six years older, worlds wiser, and an exciting force to be around. I idolized her.

To Cindy: So Long, and Thanks for All the Fish

Where shall I begin with my memories of Cindy? She was my sister. I knew her for almost my entire life. I remember the first time I saw her, when my Aunt Valerie Somers brought me  to the hospital at the  U. S. Marine Base in Quantico, where she was born.  I remember standing outside and looking in the window at this baby with long black hair, thinking what a strange sister she was! It was quite a while before I realized that the long black hair had been my mother's!
