My grandmother was one of those movie star quality people, she just shined. When she dressed up she was the most gorgous person I knew. She was the presedent of the garden club, and was a native daughter of ca, and was a member of other woman clubs where the ladies would dress up and go out. I have some very old photos of her too, which i will have to scan from when she was younger then me and first married...neat photos that to me are a real treasure.
My grandfather was a do-it-aller. He worked the railroad for over 50 years, was an avid outdoorsman, hunted, fished, carved wood (the ducks are his on the mantle) made furnature--(everything but the couches were his) gardened, was a rock hound (did lapidary as a hobby) and was an all around great man. I was blessed to have tehm in my life and to live with them
