Notes
a. Note:   BIOGRAPHY: Was a housewife all her life. She use to tell me stories of her family and where she lived as a young girl with hair down past her butt. Loved us with all her heart and rocked us until we where to big to fit in her lap. Made the best pies and taught us to make tarts with the left over crust. On Friday nights was our night for Pop to take us to the grocery store (Grandma didn't drive). She loved to crochet and made Poodles out of dish soap containers. And made lots of dollies and hats. This is where I learned to make grapes out pop bottle caps to use as hot pads. About 1955-56 Grandma and Pop took me to Ohio to Aunt Vivian and Uncle Pauls'. As the story goes she was holding me and some way I rubbed against her chest and she felt a lump. She went to the doctors and found out she had breast cancer. at the time the treatment was what they called and Atomic milk shake. I don't remember her being sick but I'm sure she went through some period of illness. Then around 1960 she had to go in to have her left breast removed. After Pop died Grandma seemed to go down hill. And I think she tryed to tell me but didn't know how. In late 1964 she went into a coma and died because it went into her stomach. BIOGRAPHY: Funeral Home was Scobbe-Ireland in Delray Beach,Fla..
