It was the fall of 1985, Grandma and Grandpa Hill had just got a new house in Savage Minnesota. There was an ongoing disagreement about money and furniture. We both wanted living room furniture. Mary Lee wanted to sit comfortably in the living room with friends and family. Don wanted to sit comfortably but had no money to buy furniture. Buying a couch at that time was out of the question. Even so Mary Lee, went and got a couch and much more.
Mervin and Janette, Mary Lee’s parents were generous and bought the furniture. Mary Lee negotiated a low price. Don’s happiness and gratitude, was hampered by his stubbornness and pride. Don has recorded this episode as a memorial to the love and generosity shown by Mervin and Janette Mack.
By the way, Mary Lee saved the day again! She turned the furniture buy into a dent and scratch sale! She still advises buyers to just ask for that lower price. “Frequently you will get it”.
