Two elderly people living in Trailer Estates, he was a Widower and
she a widow, had known each other for a number of years.



One evening there was a community supper in the big activity center.


The two were at the same table, across from one another as the meal

went on, he took a few admiring glances at her and finally gathered

the courage to ask her, " Will you marry me?"



After about six seconds of ' careful consideration' , she


answered "Yes. Yes, I will. "



The meal ended and, with a few more pleasant exchanges, they went to

Their respective places.



Next morning, he was troubled. "Did she say 'yes' or did she


say 'no'?" He couldn't remember. Try as he might, he just Could not

recall. Not even a faint memory. With trepidation, he went to The

telephone and called her.



First, he explained that he didn't remember as well as he used to.


Then he reviewed the lovely evening past. As he gained a little more

courage, he inquired, "When I asked if you would marry me, did you

say 'Yes' or did you say 'No'?"



He was delighted to hear her say, "Why, I said, 'Yes, yes I will'


and I Meant it with all my heart. " Then she continued, "I am so glad

that you called, because I couldn't remember who had asked me."
