Writing runs in the family, huh?
I found out after my grandmother passed, that she used to write a column for the paper. I never knew. My dad sent me the clipping of her articles. i need to do something with them.
Thank you so much, Virginia, Kathy and J. Aday! I am so blessed to have the support and kind words of such wonderful writers!
