A year ago August,

in recent years. Then Dave and Gerrie received a timely gift-＄ 7000, a legacy
(遗产)form their neighbors Ish and Arlene Hatch, who died in an accident. "It
really made a 3 (different)when we were
going under financially," says Dave.

5 (surprise) nearly everyone that the
Hatches had so much money, more than ＄ 3 million-they were an elderly couple who
lived in an old house on what was left of the family farm.
Children of the Great Depression, Ish and Arlene were known for their habit of
6 (save). They thrived own (喜欢)
comparison shopping and would routinely go from store to store, checking prices
before 7 (make)a new

children to attend summer camp when their parents couldn’t
8 (afford) it. "Ish and Arlene never asked you needed
anything," says their friend Sand Van Weehten, "They could see thing they could
do to make you happier, and they would do them."
