Introduction

Caterina Gledill, nee Barbero, gave me my heart and my soul. As a child she walked to the one room school house in Wilton, California with her older sisters Ed (short for Edvigia) and Del (short for Delfina). As a young woman she owned and operated her own beauty shop with Del. She married Louis Gledhill and had two children, Caroline, who without a college degree became the Vice President of Acme Auto in San Diego where she started as minimum wage bookkeeper and made investments that were lucrative enough to have one of the partners name her as VP on his passing, and John who became an Electrical Engineer who worked as an Administer for Caltrans in the traffic division. When I was a girl, she worked full time at Holiday Market in Sacramento and still found time to make us delicious holiday meals. When I graduated from UCLA I wanted to become a teacher; however, I was weary from the long hours and poverty associated with working my way through school. She convinced me to get my teaching credentials, saying, "The time will pass anyway--where do you want to be at the end of it?" Now I am retired from teaching after 30 years of service to the youth of California, levels preschool through university, in mostly public and some private venues helping 1000s of young people to become more literate, to become viable citizens and procure the work they like and that supports themselves and their families. When some of them thank me in person or via letters I often think, and sometimes say, thank my grandmother Caterina--I would not have become a teacher without her words of wisdom and the $200 a month she sent me during teaching school. Love you Grammy Whammy!
