She raised 2 families, took in several young ladies in bad situations. She made famously good pies that everyone requested. She traded pies with the Power & Light security shack across from her house so they would watch over her and the property once her husband passed. She loves HeeHaw, Barnaby Jones and Lawrence Welk. She had her own version of gin rummy eith ever changing rules lol
