I am going to be as honest as humanly possible here. I wore a red dress, red swetter, black heels, and red lips  to the Frank Sinatra Concert with Pandora, Dorinda, and Lucy. I had arranged to meet with Jack at a hotel after the party. I don't know who is going where everyone was going. A dinner was being held by my friend Lily and Joseph at their upper east side town home. 

Lily was the second wife of Joseph. Joseph and his first wife, Helen, had been married for nearly 20 years when Helen died of Cancer.  Helen had helped build Joseph up from being the poor man she met in high school in Missouri. Helen and Joseph married in 1938 at the age of 18. They had their first child shortly after. 

Joseph had gazed over to Lily when they met in 1959. She was 19 and he was 39, his wife just passed away of cancer.
