Reply from the man my mom almost married

I had sent an email to the man my mom almost married. He is from Inida. My grandmother and mom's family disapproved of the union because he was from India and had dark skin. She sent the ring back to him. He had let her drive his car from Lexington, KY, to the place where I live and she worked for some years and was deemed "incompetent." He treated her well. He respected her. I told him who I was and that I wanted to make a movie about her life.

I had told him she was a good teacher and he agreed. He remembered her getting the job here and knowing her. He said, though that time passes on and to look to the future instead of the past.

That is the way some people look at it. It is the way some people do look at it.
