We did everything together: piano lessons, movies, swimming, and horseback riding. When I was 13, my family moved away. Mary and I kept in touch through letters and we saw each other on special occasions(场合)like my wedding and Marys. Soon we were busy with children and moving to new homes, and we wrote less often. One day a card that I sent came back stamped“Address Unknown”. Over the years, I thought of Mary often. I wanted to share stories of my children and then grandchildren. And I needed to share my sadness when my brother and then mother died. There was an empty place in my heart that only a friend like Mary could fill. One day I was reading the newspaper when I noticed a photo of a young woman who looked a lot like Mary and whose last name was WagmanMarys married name. “There must be thousands of Wagman. ”I thought, but I wrote to her anyway. She called as soon as she got my letter. “Mrs Tobin! ”she said excitedly. “Mary Allen Wagman is my mother. ”Minutes later I heard a voice recognized immediately, even after 40 years. We laughed and cried and caught up on each others lives. Now the empty place in my heart is filled.

My family and friends persuaded me that a holiday might be just what the doctor ordered, so off I went. Arriving in the Sunshine State was not easy, but I managed to catch a taxi to the hotel. The next morning, I caught another taxi to do some shopping. Later I went to a caf to buy some lunch, but having my sandwich and drink in my hands, I saw that all the tables were occupied(占用). Then I heard a friendly voice saying, “You can share my table. ”I thankfully sat down with the smiling elderly lady and we shared a happy lunch together. As the meal drew to a close she asked how long I would be in Orlando. I had already told her that I hadnt hired(租用)a car, and hadnt realized how costly taking taxis would be. After a while she said, “My dear, dont use any more taxis. It would be my pleasure to drive you wherever you wish. ”I told her that I couldnt put her to that trouble, but she insisted. She took details of where I was staying and the next morning she drove me to Disney World. She took me through the parks gates and spent some time with me before leaving me to explore alone. At the end of the day, she returned to take me back to my hotel. The next few days, she drove me around Orlandos tourist areas. I offered her money but she refused to take any. When we had lunch on my last day, I thanked her for her kindness.
