Maude Findlay:
[while discussing not having the ideal coat for her prom] Just as my date and I were walking up the high school steps, there was my father. He was out of breath and sweating and he was holding this coat with the Persian lamb collar. He had gone to the furrior's home and- and pleaded with them to open the store so that he could buy that coat, and then he broke every traffic law in the books so that he could get there in time to give me this coat, with the Persian lamb collar so that I could wear it to the prom. [Breaking into tears] Oh, how could I have forgotten a thing like that? I mean what a sweet, thoughtful, loving thing to do! You know, deep down, I never said this out loud to anyone, not even myself but I think deep down I loved my father. Oh, how I loved him.
