When he was sent a copy for his approval, he made but one change, that he was single, and never married. It was assumed that he and Barbie were marrie...d, he guessed.When he pulled into the large dirt and gravel driveway he was the third car there. He saw a woman taping table covers on long tables in the side yard and as he pulled in a gray haired, but seemingly young, late 30's or early 40's, woman came out of the house with bags of ice.
