BRATTLEBORO — My late wife, Florence Karpin, had more talents than I can list.
Our most precious possession was her piano, and she played everything from popular music to many of the classics.
She could sew and did so often, and she also made some clothing.
And although she couldn't boil water without burning it when we just married, she learned - and later she entertained many with her cooking and baking for all occasions.
She knew how to decorate our homes in early American styles during 67 years we were married.
Many times she told me, “I can learn anything I want.”
And she did.
