Granny grew up rural, poor, no indoor plumbing, no air conditioning. She was a tough lady but yet so elegant in her own way.
She worked on a peanut farm in Dothan, Alabama...met grampy picking peanuts.. grampy was a rough one but got that way fighting japs in ww2.
Dipped tabaccy and drank straight whiskey like it was water but raised my dad who eventually became an Astronaut... ok im making this sh88 up..

Granny was awesome!
She was an Air Force wife back in the 50's and 60's, and lived everywhere from Okinawa to Bellingham.
Raised two sons that served in 'Nam.
Was even known to waterski in her mid/late 50's - just to show us (and herself) that she still could. Enjoyed fishing and a cold beer or mixed drink from time to time.
Loved her soap operas and the Price is Right. Her and Gramps went to a taping out in California, and not only did she get called up to contestant's row, she had the winning bid and got to play a game. Hit her head on the big wheel when she spun it, and I've been trying to find that episode online for years.
Had been married to Gramps for 56 years when he passed.

My grandparents were old to me, but now I look back at pictures and I’m the old one.
I was fortunate to have a great family and grandparents and relatives, I miss those days and my youth.

My dad’s parents owned a few small hotels with an attached diner several states away. When they retired, my grandma went to work at a big fancy hotel as a bartender and did that until she was 92 and lost control of a drink cart on a ramp.
A few years after she died I was down in the river market in Little Rock and there was a hotel convention going on. Saw some people with shirts on from the big hotel.
I asked if they knew or remember grandma Sus-Scrofa. Their response was “she was a legend!”

I remember my maternal grandmother very well. She was a wonderful lady from Bayou Lafourche.
Spoke fluent Cajun French.
Died at 92 when I was 36

I’d cut off a pinky toe to have a meal cooked by either today.

Driving around town she would come to a dead stop in the middle of every turn. World's slowest driver. Died at 89.
She could cook an awesome game bird dinner.
I never knew, or knew anything about, my paternal grandmother. I didn't even know her name. The few times I asked my parents would start talking about my step grandmother.
When I was 70 and my mother was 94 I got my mother to talk. My paternal grandmother abandoned and divorced my grandfather. Later she had an affair with a married man. When he wouldn't leave his wife she shot him to death with a revolver. Her name was Daisey.
