PawPaw and granny love making a big garden, granny love canning our Smokehouse Cellar was always full. I can still remember the soft and sweet smellin' flour sack night gowns she would make us on her old pedal sewing machine. Pawpaw and granny was such a big part of my sister, brother and my life growing up, they were kind, caring and loving. Words can't describe how much they BOTH meant to us!! They gave us a Special Gift..."Love" and "Memories" which is perhaps the best gifts of all!!! We Love And Miss You So Much Granny and Pawpaw! I remember pawpaw and granny loved porch sittin' in their rockin' chairs in the late summer evening's. Mommy would keep several of her cows in the barn lot to keep the grass grazed down, pawpaw and granny love watchin' the cows graze, I remember the conversation's were few, just enjoying the quiet peacefulness and probably reminiscing of long ago.

THE GOOD HOT BUNS, CORN SCRAPED OFF THE COB AND COOKED IN YOUR OLD IRON SKILLET, ICE TEA BOILED IN A POT AND STRAINED THROUGH A FLOUR SACK DISH RAG, WERE MY FAVORITE...NOTHIN' EVER TASTED SO GOOD! THE COLD WINTER NIGHTS, YOU WOULD WRAP MY COLD LITTLE FEET UP IN THE TAIL OF YOUR SOFT WARM FLANNEL NIGHTGOWN AS I SLEPT.
