"When We were Pirates..."
Not a whole lot of people can look back on their life and say that. But those of us who wore buckles anytime after 1980 were very lucky to have shared dock space with Kimmi Cummins. She was an original. With one simple glare, she could filet you to the bone-- or make you howl with laughter-- and often it was with the same glare.
She could swear like a sailor in front of a boatload of guests and then walk backstage, pop in a binkie and be the warmest, most genuine person on earth. It was a gift.
Once in awhile, out of the blue, I'll think of a little saying (which I probably shouldn't repeat here) that Kimmi would spout out to me at the least appropriate moments. After all these years, it still cracks me up.
Thanks, Kimmi. Hopefully we'll meet again.
