The grandmother I knew and loved was a strong and determined lady, she had to be. Her mother died when she was 7 and her father died when she was only 13. Following her fathers death she lived with her elder brother until she married my grandfather. And I have stories about him too :-)CherryPiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11788084724907992076noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-776872662073607566.post-77825054988936105422016-03-16T16:15:06.745+11:002016-03-16T16:15:06.745+11:00CherryPie you will see below that the Southern Gal...CherryPie you will see below that the Southern Gal thanks you. :)Amfortashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07474382097575605017noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-776872662073607566.post-23151347157043054972016-03-16T15:58:41.240+11:002016-03-16T15:58:41.240+11:00I agree:).
