> And it was common knowledge that Someone Else was generous toward

> Someone Else would make up the difference.
> Were the truth known, we all expected far too much of
> Someone Else. Now Someone Else is gone! We wonder what we are going to do.
> Someone Else left a model to follow, but we wonder---WHO is going to do
> all those things that Someone Else did?
