Today Comment: EBONY HUNGER was nearby; family-style, good food, friendly service, a typical small, neighborhood restaurant, popular with the older set. Both had been there many times with their spouses. They went in and found a booth. The waitress knew them, and greeted them with a quizzical expression. ˇ§Hi Pete, hi Jesse, havenˇ¦t seen you two for awhile.ˇ¨
Pete recognized the question behind her expression, and smiled. ˇ§Hi Mary Jo, we both were widowed several months ago. We decided to have a little change of scene for lunch today.ˇ¨
