I was raised with the strongest of women surrounding me and sharing each of their talents! I was blessed to feel the love and sorrow in a group setting. We harmonized while singing. We learned how to create a piece of clothing from just one pattern in multiple sizes, using different materials for the climates worn. For myself it was cooking for large groups and the balances of spices. We were taught to except all job challenges to develop a sound mindset. My mother had beauty, humor and respectability earned with a biggest smile to pass on. Love Susan! - Posted by: Susan Warga (Proud Daughter of Nancy !) on: Apr 13, 2025
