Dick Summer Connection

Some of the Christmas stories you’ve sent to dick@dicksummer.com are classics. Thank you. Some go up here on the blog, and others go into the podcasts. Here’s one from Proud Podcast Person Gary Brefini that hit me like Ali’s left hook:

Hi Dick! Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays….stop reading if I shared this already…My late wife Anita and I would decorate the tree with the children..But we saved two mini stuffed ornaments for last after the kids went to bed. They were some kind of white snow people; one a boy and one a girl….She would take them in her hands, make a goofy voice and hold the girl and say ” This one is me”…then take the other one and hold it up and say in that funny voice “This one is you”….Just to get her to repeat it I would “Which one is me and which one is you?”…she would change it up and repeat it….Then she would make them kiss and do a goofy kissing sound….we would then hang them on the tree…then we would kiss and go to bed. I have not taken those ornaments out of the box for 12 years since she passed. But I think of her and wonder what the hell she saw in me. Merry Christmas to you and your dear wife and family! Be well!
