Personal Notes:
Personal Notes:
These were Garry's favorite and she always made some if she knew we were coming to visit.
She was a wonderful Christian lady who raised 12 children and had an alcoholic husband. She had a son who was deaf that lived with her and then raised two granddaughters on top of that. She was always good to us, even our Mom when we saw her. She was our Dad's Mother and she always told us she didn't know where he was but she never tried to defend him to us.
