I got this email in my inbox today. It’s a nice tribute to a nice gesture made by one friend to another.

Today, I wanted to point out something that my friend, Fonda Sara did.
This past summer, our office worked to have the corner of Carroll &
Seventh dedicated as Jackie Connor’s Corner.   

As you may recall, we
decorated the pole with the maypole-like ribbons that were a fixture on
Seventh Avenue for many months after the street corner-naming. 

They
withstood lots of bad weather and were looking kind of tattered.   So I
am walking in the neighborhood on Saturday and notice that the old
ribbons were gone and NEW ribbons (in holiday colors) had replaced
them.   

I smiled to myself, because it had Fonda’s fingerprints all
over it.  Yesterday I called her just to say how great I thought that
was.  What a devoted friend and a great Park Slope neighbor.
