No longer an awkward pre-teen, Denise is now in High School. She has grown into a beautiful young lady and although she is not exceptionally tall she has been blessed with long legs which made it difficult whenever she went to buy jeans or pants. A complaint I heard quite often when shopping with her.
No longer imitating singers, she has now developed a love for dancing and boy can she dance. It seems she has a natural talent. No matter what the dance she always mastered it in no time. I loved to watch her do the Robot. I remember when the two of us decided to take a line dancing class together and although I always added an extra step, she had no problem. After the first lesson, the instructor asked her how long she had been line dancing and was very surprised to find out this was the first time as she was so good.
As soon as she was old enough she started looking for a job after school for some spending money. She found a job at a little Greek restaurant and talked us into trying different dishes. She also worked for IBM for awhile as a typist. She went thru High School with top grades and received an award for her typing skill and speed upon graduation.
Denise had a personality that always made her the life of a party. She had a way of making the simplest statement or gesture into something funny. I wasn't there but I'm sure she was not only the most beautiful girl at the prom but also the most fun. (to be continued)
