He Never Met A Stranger

Fio is her father's daughter. Dad always had a smile on his face. He talked to waiters, bellboys, people in cafeteria lines. No wonder his nickname was "Buddy," and he was president of his high school class. No wonder he moved upward at work, despite having only a class or two of college. No wonder he was able to organize bowling and golf leagues.

Fio is her mother's daughter. Mom had the eye and knew not only how to dress, but also how to decorate home and garden. She was a hard worker, devoted to her family, and particularly sensitive to the needs of children and old people. Musical-harmonica and piano by ear. Lovely singing voice, but shy about singing. Shy about people too, the axact opposite if Dad, but she was a dtermined PTA member both to help her children and because a PTA scholarship had helped her finish college. Spelling, loyal to PTa, perfect attendance.
