Fio Divulges All

Fiorella's maternal grandfather and uncle were born mechanics. In fact, Uncle Ivan was so good that the army sent him to MIT for advanced training and his post-war employer kept him on despite his alcoholism. (Oddly enough, Fio's mother, his sister, never even learned how to drive--but then, she didn't drink either.)
*
Fio's father had no aptitude for mechanics, but his high school nickname was "Bud" because he could make friends anywhere he went. Your Fiorella, thank goodness, shares this aptitude.
*
Mother may not have been able to drive, but she did know how to do minor household repairs and decorate a home. She also paid all bills, which is probably why Fiorella had no problem taking on that job after she was married.
 *
Fiorella's whole family was musical. Dad had a second-lead role in his high school's musical, and he taught Fiorella little songs like "Little Brown Jug" on the way to church when she was a child. Mother's genealogy included a few lady concert singers, and she herself played the harmonica and, in her old age, the piano. (Fio should add in that her rascally grandfather sang in a barbershop quartet.)

You realize, of course, that Fiorella could make a blog out of her own funeral.
