She lasted a semester and then took a job in the bookkeeping department at State Farm. He'd worked at State Farm for 45 years, my mother for 41 they had devoted their lives to it, and it had repaid them in more than money. When I say "my father's company" I don't mean he owned it or had much say but that it was his in the way his garden was his, by dint of work and love. It was the first time I had written the president of a company I don't believe that stuff about going to the top, but the problem raised seemed serious, and this was my father's company. That was unusual so I wrote the president of the company, Ed Rust Jr., enclosing the extra copy. I have a bit of stock in State Farm Funds, and some months back I received two identical proxies for the same account.
