One of her grandchildren mentioned that she was just 2 months shy of tuning 100 years old.  The things that she had seen in her lifetime. When she was born , the Model T was just starting to bring cars to the masses .She went from that to seeing man walk on the moon.  She lived a lot of life, and she always thanked the Lord for the blessings that He gave them.
