She has a jukebox in the living room, an upright piano in the foyer and a small, cluttered study downstairs, with pictures of cherished stars of the past like Marilyn Monroe and Clark Gable. The ceiling of her bedroom is painted sky blue, with puffy white summer clouds-her brother Richard's artwork. In the back there is a small swimming pool, beside which...
