Life's little things

Leslie Leary was 16 when the Fresh Air Fund introduced her to Irene, a 9-year-old girl from New York City who stayed in Leary's home for the summer.

Above all her memories of playing with Irene like an adopted sister - taking her to Falcon Park, vacationing together in the Adirondacks - Leary recalls one mental picture of her family's guest.

“She used to sit in the front yard and just feel the grass,” Leary said.
