We were blessed to learn many valuable lessons from Mammaw during her 80 years. "Just a little of this and a little of that", "I Swanie", "Love you a good mystery like Columbo, Barretta or Law n Order", "Hard work never killed anybody, you might think it will", "Waste not want not", "Say your prayers and go to church." The most important lesson....... work hard, Love one another and to know, according to Mammaw "You're the sweetest one."She enjoyed sewing and was an excellent seamstress. She loved her family!
