In many ways she reminds me of my own mother although she was not in the military. She worked for Douglas Aircraft for awhile during the war. People of that generation were tough. They had to be to survive. Your post brought back memories for me. <br />CharlotteAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-370844185819057164.post-48341980009160609082009-05-26T11:21:23.832-05:002009-05-26T11:21:23.832-05:00What a great post, and wonderful tribute to your M...What a great post, and wonderful tribute to your Mom!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-370844185819057164.post-46948384505749442372009-05-24T10:05:43.699-05:002009-05-24T10:05:43.699-05:00This is the nicest tribute!

Your respect and love for her was so apparent in your writing. Her photos look like she was a fun-loving, pretty, and happy person, in spite of all she had faced in her life. I also enjoyed reading about the monument. So glad that was finally accomplished, and the pictures look like it turned out beautifully. laurieBargain Decorating with Lauriehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13582640485560903639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-370844185819057164.post-20844020359641224642009-05-12T13:12:00.000-05:002009-05-12T13:12:00.000-05:00Becky, your mother was extraordinary.

They were truly the GREATEST generation. Living through the depression and World War II made them tough; they worked hard and never wasted anything. They knew the value of an education and appreciated so many things we take for granted in our country today. My mother, born in 1910, dropped out of college during the depression and taught all 8 grades in a one-room school. When she heard on the radio that Pearl Harbor had been bombed, she was wrapping Christmas cookies for her brother who was there. He survived and those cookies were the only gift he got that Christmas. You have inspired me to write about her some day soon!Peghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08784695727082212481noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-370844185819057164.post-88426224808986257632009-05-11T12:36:00.000-05:002009-05-11T12:36:00.000-05:00Wow Becky!
