My grandmother had opinions about things: proper posture, bangs that hung in young girls’ faces, and manners. She was right on most counts. My grandparents and parents held manners in high regard. We were taught to answer “Yes, please” instead of “Yeah,” and “No, thank you” instead of “Nah.” And we knew to address adults by Mr. and Mrs. My father had a law partner named Charles Schoeneck. “Mr. Schoeneck” was harder to pronounce than just Charles or Chuck, but that was my problem, not his.
Hi Tracy enjoyed this. I had to learn not to sign my texts. Ha ha Julia
