I have a rare 33.3 Record Album:
“The Family That Plays Together (Gets On Each Other's Nerves)” 1977.
I was 19, had no idea what married life or children was about as it was just me and my father (my mother, died when I was 9) BUT I STILL FOUND HER HUMOR THE BEST!
Short life for a lovely lady that made the world smile.❤

I grew up reading her syndicated column. I miss her.

I've seen this written in many posts but was so happy to hear her say the words. She was a great lady.

Erma Bombeck... Oh yes, the world was a better place with her in it. Sad that she didn’t get to be here longer. So wonderful however, that She is still always with us in her books, columns, and these CZcams videos (that I just found)!! It’s great to hear her voice!

She passed away in 1996, never reaching age 70. But what's truly sad, is that I am the ONLY one (thus far) to comment on her too-short life.
The Earth is a better place because she was here, and Heaven became a better place, after she arrived...

I TOO WAS HERE
