My grandmother, Esther, lived to be 104 years old. Her funeral services brought my family together yesterday. She spent her last days full of grace, surrounded by her four children. She spent her life full of grace, too. Grace combined with true grit. Losing her parents at an early age, Esther’s stories are full of hardship, resilience, and determination. They remind me of how quickly, in fact, times do change. On my blog today I share some of the stories she told me about her early life in Michigan in the 1900’s.
