THIS WEEK’S WINNER, NAOMI

After a happy marriage of many years, and 3 years of widowhood, friends convinced me to do online dating. Hesitantly, I did meet some nice men online, but none appealed to me as much as Jay, a widower about my age.  After some phone calls, we decided to meet for coffee at Silver Diner in the afternoon of March 10, 2020. We shook hands and quickly sanitized our hands since Covid was just beginning. Our conversation over coffee was wonderful. He even offered to treat me for something more substantial. This led to many more one-on-one, but distanced, conversations over the months that followed. Kind of an old-fashioned courtship of getting to know about one another. In November, we decided to try being together. At our advanced ages, why waste time? It has been a fantastic four years together. We had another Silver Diner anniversary dinner last month. Thank you, Silver Diner.

As a winner, Naomi will receive $100 Silver Diner gift card and qualify for the grand prize of $1000 Silver Diner gift card.

Sponsor’s failure to enforce any term of these Official Rules will not constitute a waiver of that provision. Participants agree to waive any rights to claim ambiguity of these Official Rules. Headings are solely for convenience of reference and will not be deemed to affect in any manner the meaning or intent of the documents or any provision hereof.
