PERSONALS

An unspoiled, UES WASP Manhattan widow in her seventies, considered, “kind”, “intelligent”, “loving”, “entertaining”, ”pretty”, and “youthful" is attempting a bold New Year's resolution to meet a widower who feels the same way I do—missing my late spouse but also wishing to connect with a like-minded man to share fun times. Good looks aren’t important, but a personal preference is clean shaven. I’m a writer, loving mom, granny, church-goer (St. James, NYC) non-smoker, evening cocktail enjoyer, lover of books, films, walks in Central Park, active fireplaces, cozy evenings, small dinner parties with fun friends, and a fan of Stephen Colbert and Bill Maher and a member of the NYC Harvard Club, The Pilgrims, and The Singing Beach Club on Boston’s Gold Coast. An old-fashioned letter is a good start. Mrs. T. P.O. Box 5273, Beverly Farms Ma, 01915.
