Idle


Keshia, was funny, sweet and very beautiful. She and Tim enjoyed their
Saturday afternoons in the East Village visiting their favorite stores and cafes .
Tim would not be,"Idle"about his feeling for her any longer.
He liked it so much that he thought he'd better put a ring on it!!!! hee he hee hee!
For my niece Neille bug and her new Husband
Steve. I love you both so much!
Yaw have a wonderful weekend K!
