She was my first mentor at my first job, in a dress shop back when I was a senior in high school. Irene was much older, more of a grandmother than a co-worker. I was an awkward teenager, but she never made me feel that way. She had an only son, Steve, that she kept trying to set me up with. While that didn\u2019t happen, she still treated me like family. For Christmas, she even gave me a vintage red sweater set that her husband had picked up for her in Italy while he was stationed there.<\/p>\n<p>One time, I\u2019d gone to work after picking up my senior pictures. I didn\u2019t think I was photogenic, but Irene loved the photos. She explained that she was taking art lessons, and her instructor had asked each student to paint a portrait. Irene asked if she could use my photo as a model. Of course I agreed.<\/p>\n<p>I never saw that portrait. While I was at college, the dress shop closed and I couldn\u2019t track her down.<\/p>\n<p>A little red notification popped up on my Facebook page. A message. I opened it up. Bente Bernstein? I didn\u2019t know anyone by that name. Probably spam. I was about to close it when it hit me. Bernstein\u2014Irene\u2019s last name.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m Irene\u2019s daughter-in-law,\u201d Bente wrote. \u201cMy husband Steve thinks you\u2019re the one Irene often spoke about. She passed away recently, and while we were cleaning out her attic, we found something that you might like to have\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Bente and I met a few days later. I gave her Irene\u2019s sweater set\u2014still in great condition and perfect for Irene\u2019s granddaughter\u2014and she gave me the portrait. Irene had painted me with loving detail, transforming my awkward school picture into a work of art. It wasn\u2019t how I remembered myself. But it was how Irene saw me\u2014beautiful, young, full of promise.<\/p>\n<p>Now that lifted my spirits. I was ready to stop scrolling Facebook, and start looking for a new job.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I sat at my home computer, scrolling through Facebook posts.
