Once A Year Contact

I was at a backyard barbecue talking to a friend when she saw somebody across the yard that she had not seen in a long time. She excused herself and went across the yard to talk. I did not pay much attention. I just continued to socialize.

A while later when I caught up with her again, I asked her how was the reunion with her old friend. She filled me in with some information that I did not know. Apparently, she was very good friends with Jane many years ago in high school. As the years passed, their relationship was down to the 2 of them sending each other a Christmas card once a year.

There were no telephones calls made to each other during the years. There were no Holiday Newsletters inside any of the Christmas cards. There was no personal letters, not even a short note. She sent them a card every year and signed her name. They sent her a card every year that was always signed The Doe Family.

At the barbecue she saw Jane’s husband and walked up to him to say Hi and where’s Jane? He told her that he and Jane got divorced about 6 years ago, he remarried and he introduced her to the wife that he had been married to for the past 4 years, Mary and their child.

He told her that Jane moved out of town shortly after their divorce. Since she always sends a card addressed To: Mr. and Mrs. John Doe, he always responds and sends his card to her every year addressed the same way, From: Mr. and Mrs. John Doe and signs it The Doe Family.

Her friend Jane never saw any of the Christmas cards that were sent to her over the past 6 years.
