That was my feeling as well. I truly did not push the issue with her upon learning her sister's feelings and position. As you say, they have my number and I know where it is. As we have been neighbors for several years (I've been here since '94), I will check-in on occasion just to see how the new digs are working out and keep me in her memory. My wife and I are very good friends with the owners of the house and I did provide a far bit of help when she first moved in and was having problems. I was (and usually am) the first to walk over and welcome her to the neighborhood and offer any help I could. I remember when we bought this house how nice it felt to have our new, next-door neighbor come by on our first evening with coffee and an offer of help.
