Slick thank you for sharing your interesting story about your Grandmother, she sounded like a woman who went through extremely hard times, but came out of it , still with a smile on her face, indeed a remarkable woman was your Grandmother Rose, sadly I have never known any of my grandparents, so Slick it is great that you shared these times with her, and that she lived to such a ripe old age despite her hardship, Happy Birthday to your Grandmother, I am sure she is looking down on you with a big smile on her face .
