Guess who's moving into the neighborhood!

I don't know if I mentioned it but there was this elderly man I used to walk with everyday several months ago. I quit going down to the track because it was starting to get cold. He is a real estate broker and he told me if I ever needed help let him know. So when I first started this housing project, I noticed he wasn't at the track anymore so I called his office and they told me that he was out sick and so I asked when he'll be back in and they told me that he won't...He has cancer. I was crushed! I drove past his house on the way to the store (this is a very small town) and I noticed they were emptying out his house...Killed me! I remember before I quit going down there he told me that he was feeling tired a lot.

Lastly, I think the people fell for it. They said they'd sign the papers for us to buy the land. The lady even called Casey back, and was like, "Oh, I got the wrong number" she's so excited! I thought hmmmmm, they've been cut and don't even know they're bleeding! Imagine their faces when "Guess who's moving into the neighborhood."
