Bert Kate,my grandfather,celebrated his 90th birthday in November 2016.Bert loved sports and was an enthusiastic Yankees (an American professional baseball team based in the New York City) fan,so it was no wonder that over the years,he was an avid(熱切的) listener to WFAN radio and,in particular,the afternoon show hosted by Mike Francesa.
    Bert had health issues in his later years that limited his mobility,and when he lost his vision three years ago,his attachment to his radio and Francesa became more pronounced.He just loved listening to Mike talk about sports and his Yankees each afternoon.Those hours brought him so much pleasure.
    Of course,Mike will be leaving Dec.15,2017 after 30 years at the station.Mike lives in the same community where I work on Long Island,and I have gotten to know him over the past 20 years.So when my grandfather was approaching his special birthday the year before last year,I asked Mike for a favor:to call Bert and wish him a happy birthday.
    Mike agreed without hesitation.Two days before the special day,Mike stopped at my workplace.I called Bert at his nursing home and put Mike on the phone.It was a complete surprise to Bert.Mike spent more than 10 minutes wishing Bert a happy birthday and,of course,talking about the Yankees.
    When my family celebrated Bert's birthday two days later,he couldn't stop talking about the phone call.Over his lifetime,he said it was one of the nicest things anyone had ever done for him.
    Unfortunately,Ben's health declined last year and he passed away July 13,2017.But even in his final months in the hospital and nursing home,he always had a radio set to WFAN to listen each afternoon to Mike Francesa.And he also had the memory of that special phone call for his 90th birthday.

  • 3.Dear Laura,
        Thanks for letting us to stay at your seaside house. Now, you might have heard from your neighbors about which happened on Saturday evening. When I was out a walk, my younger son, Tom, played football before your house. He made so many noise that the neighbors got quite angrily. Even worse, Tom broke one of the window of Mr. Wilson's house. Tom and I apologized to all the neighbors for the unhappy happenings, but promised to have the broken window repair soon. Tom said that we would not do such silly things any more. I am glad that your neighbors had forgiven us. They are really nice people.
    Yours,
    Betty
