I knew your grandma through the Danish Sisterhood. She seemed to really enjoy coming to the meetings. Sometimes I would take her home and wonder how she ever climed those stairs to her apartment. She was a nice lady that must have had a lot of heart ache in her life with loosing her children. Sounds like you grandkids took good care of her.
