This 94 year old represents one of the reasons I'm glad to be part of my family. She is a woman of faith. She is optimistic. She is fun loving. The other day i found out something new when she said: "I like to read history. That's what attracted my husband."

When she was young she would read Ladies Home Journal, Metropolitan and Reader's Digest. Mrs Roosevelt used to write in the Ladies Home Journal. One of the first things she told her husband was "I'm going to vote for Roosevelt!" She wasn't even a citizen when she said this.

Thanks to her love of reading my aunt, Edna (aka Sherrie) at the age of 3 would carry around Reader's Digest and would read it cover to cover!
