Grandma


Grandma Lavy - she's about as different from Grandpa as can be. But, can you imagine them not together? What word describes her? Hmmm...might be the same word we used for Grandpa. Consistent. Maybe not the first thing that comes to mind, but she's just the same most of the time.

I talked about Dad coming home at 5:30 every night, and he did. But, Mother had supper ready every night at 5:30. If you came to visit and it was bedtime, you might as well get ready to go home or she would get ready for bed and you would be leaving anyhow. Wasn't quite like that, but she did pretty much everything on her schedule day after day. So, she has been "consistent" in her own way for a long time.

She never thought much of mustaches and beards. She is pretty constant in reminding me that mine could go away at any time and she would be happy. She always enjoys company, and wants us back soon! Even wants me to come back with my mustache!

Stop by and see her when you get the chance. She won't let you out of her room unless you sign her guestbook, even if you were there the day before.

Thanks, Mother, for being a Godly, consistent woman for those many years.

She was definitely consistent - if we wanted icecream from her we had to say a Bible verse. There was just no way around it. So I would quickly memorize one hanging on her fridge and then..maybe...I would get some :O)

I went over there a few times with you all during one summer. And didn't she have money you had to pay for snacks in a little jar or something like that?

Lowell, your grandmother sounds like Mom Kelley re the "maus gras" or facial hair. "Mom" promised our PNG headmaster she would bake him a pie if he would shave his beard. He did, and received the pie, and said it was well worth it. He'd shave a beard any time for a pie!

Consistent is a great word to describe Doris. She is consistently loving.
