Bette gives us a lovely poem about her inspirational grandmother.
Bette A. Stevens, Maine Author
Grandma’s Legacy is a poem that I wrote several years ago in honor of a truly great woman—Elizabeth A. Babcock, born January 1, 1898, died January 1, 1975. Grandma lives on in the hearts and memories of all whose lives she touched. The photo ( circa 1952) of me and Grandma was taken by my dear father, one of Grandma’s eight children. ~ Bette A. Stevens

How wonderful to have a grandmother memory of such a beautiful soul, Bette – and what a wonderful way to honor her life and her spirit. Eight children raised during the Depression, never complaining, living a faith-based life – admirable!
Thanks for sharing, Bernadette.

Thank you, Bette. I was not blessed with a grandmother like yours – the opposite, actually – so I REALLY love reading posts like this one.
Happy Thanksgiving.
