Even at the age of 75,(1)Thelma was very happy and full of life. When her husband passed away, her children suggested that she should move to a "senior living community".(1)A social and life-loving person, Thelma decided to do so. Shortly after she moved in, Thelma became a self-appointed activities director, coordinating all sorts of things for the people in the community to do and quickly became very popular and made many friends.(2)When Thelma turned 80, her new-found friends showed their appreciation by throwing a surprise birthday party for her. When Thelma entered the dining room for dinner that night, she was greeted by a standing applause and one of the coordinators led her to the head table. The night was filled with laughter and entertainment, but throughout the evening, Thelma could not take her eyes off a gentleman sitting at the other end of the table. When the festivities ended, Thelma quickly rose from her seat and rushed over to the man.(3)"Pardon me," Thelma said. "Please forgive me if I made you feel uncomfortable by staring at you all night. I just couldn’t help myself from looking your way. You see, you look just like my fifth husband." "Your fifth husband!" replied the gentleman. "Forgive me for asking, but how many times have you been married?" With that, a smile came across Thelma’s face as she responded, "Four." They were married shortly after.
