(Also for ABC Wednesday: “A” is for “After”)
Here’s this week’s quiz question. Give us the name of the following character.
(From the response, it seems this was a tough question. Sorry, folks; I had no idea. I thought nearly everyone watched that serial. Oops - I may just have allowed the feline out of the satchel.)

Don’t care much for Shakespeare?
Then you’ll love this; he didn’t write it.
This is the story of a young woman you may have heard of. She had everything: youth, beauty, money, a social position in the minor nobility, you name it.
But she committed what was for her social class a sort of faux pas:
She married a commoner.
Actually, he wasn’t commoner than anyone else - J - but he was definitely not upper clahss.
Funny thing, she fell in love with him anyway and they had a happy marriage together.
But such happiness couldn’t last. Life – (actually it was death) – intervened. Her true love was killed in an accident.
She was devastated. She withdrew from society, wanting nothing more than to be alone with her grief. The key problem after a tragedy of this nature has to do with the word ‘after’. What is one to do after such an event?
Her father, who loved her dearly, created a sort of cocoon about her so she wouldn’t be bothered by the nuisances of existence.
But this actually wasn’t good for her. As the months passed she needed to leave the house, to step out into the figurative sunshine, to once again learn how to live.
The last I heard she seemed to be coming along well. Hope she makes it.
