 The job paid off in other ways as well. Through the Bogarduses, she met people who came up to the country from New York City to vacation. In time, Mrs. LaGrange said, a New York couple built a little cabin on the Gibbs farm - just two bedrooms and a porch; they ate with the Gibbs. When the couple died, she rented the place to others. A high point was an overnight visit by the actor Gene Kelly. "I often wonder what my life would have been like if I hadn't said 'yes' about that job," Mrs. LaGrange quoted her mother as saying.
-"Mother used to say the Lord didn't give her any gift," Mrs. LaGrange said. "I said her gave her the gift of hospitality. THe minute someone was coming, she would start thinking what she would serve them. She was also a fine psychiatrist for people."
