and our "Help" was a member of the family that we dearly loved...Belle was the best thing that ever happened to all of us....As a treat my Dad would buy her, her favorite cigar and she would be thrilled but the rest of the neighbors were not thrilled with Dad "overpaying" her....Looking forward to seeing the movie..
