She knows me. Well, I thought she knew me. She knows, for example, that I love A&W Onion Rings and windmill cookies and Scrabble on Sunday afternoons. She knows that I prefer dead flowers or dried ones to freshly cut ones.

She always used to bring me dead flowers which I thought was stunning.

But she brought me freshly cut flowers on the day she came to say goodbye. I kept them and offer it to you the way I like it. The way she knows, the way she knew, I like it.
