Life with Bruce was good. He was thoughtful, kind, patient and had enough money to fulfil your seemingly endless craving for books. Slowly you had gotten into the rhythm of reading a book almost every day.

The shelves of his library filled quickly and overspilled into the living room, hallways, bedroom and any other shelves you could find.

The headlines came in quickly. "Ms. Wayne donates books from her private library to schools." "Public library thanks Mrs. Wayne for her generous donation."
