  • Few people get to experience 100 years. Someone that has lived through both world wars! The amazing difficult times during the great depresion. The trying times of a homesteader raising a family in the years of limited utilities or any of the comforts we all enjoy nowadays. How do you raise a family with so little in the 30's, 40's and 50's,? lots of love I guess! But lots of work too. Grandma's stories of years past were incredible and for the younger generations sometimes incredibly unbelievable, but be sure they are all true. Loved to dance, loved to sing, loved to have people around. Regardless of life's crossroads always a smile, a hug and an I love you during visits and goodbyes. A great person that will be missed by all. Rest in peace - Posted by: Conrad (grandson ) on: Jan 14, 2015
