Hankies
Submitted by Anonymous
When I was a little girl, I went to High Holy Holiday services with my friend and her grandma. Nona, always stuffed a hankie in the sleeve of her outfit, and hauled it out often during services to dab at her tearing eyes. I’ve carried that vignette with me throughout my adult life, especially at that time of year.
