My kids sit in Gee's living room and gently lift the New Year ornaments (out of
a well-loved cardboard box.Gee stands beside them,quietly explaining each treasure.She tells
them that she and Tom built their ornament collection piece by piece during each year's
after-New Year sale.
We first met Tom and Gee in the early days of our marriage.Someone had been
returning our garbage cans to the garage each garbage day,and Jim and I had wondered
who.Then one day we spotted him:an elderly man who lived across the street.
I baked cookies and left them in a chair outside the garage with a thank-you note.When
we got home from work that day,a typed letter had replaced the gift.The letter was from
Tom and explained how he had come to walk the neighbourhood on garbage day,returning
garbage cans for people he barely knew.
Then,his young wife,Gee,found herself living alone.Neighbours had taken the time to
handle her garbage cans.
We photocopied that letter and attached it to one of our own for Gee.We told her how
special Tom had been to us,how we grieved (for her,and how thankful we were to have
known him.
When Gee invited us over to look through the New Year ornaments,I realized how hard
it must be to part with that box,a piece of Tom.It's the man who lets our kids pick peaches
off the tree in his front yard.It's the ladies who call Tom when their pool filter breaks.
These days,we're piling up boxes of our own.We are planning a move,but Jim and I
agree to wait until January.This New Year,we'll decorate our furniture with Gee's
ornaments,out of the box that is labeled in Tom's handwriting.Thank you,I'll say,for
teaching us what it means to be a neighbour.
