She could have been a storyteller/writer -
the likes of Garrison Keilor.
Drawn in by her words and
introduced to people you had never met
but wished you had.
She would have been a poet,
on a level with one whe loved so much,
James Whitcomb Riley.
If in doubt just read -
"Nobody remembers the Potashes' farm but me".
She could have bren an executive of a large company -
growing and making it a success
with an uncanny ability
of seeing "down the road" and
knowing what needed to be done.
She could have been a teacher
because of her lifelong love of
learning and wanting to share
that love with others.
She could have been any one of these
but she "bloomed where she was planted"
as the poem says and Clermont County
benefited from it.
One woman with a desire to help and make life better for others.
One woman who dreamed it - started it and made it work.
One woman who wouldn't be denied.
One woman - Whose family must have been so proud.
One woman - We were all blessed to have known.
One woman.
One woman.
