My grandmother's name was Betty Jo. She looked very much like this photo of your mother. Both beautiful women. I am so sorry for your loss. *hugs*

*Hugs* She sounds like a remarkable woman

Aw, Doc... she was a pain in the ass. But she was my pain in the ass.

I was just thinking, Doc, that I probably sounded kinda harsh in my reply. I think, though, that you've probably read "The Razor's Edge" by W. Somerset Maugham.

She was a remarkable woman, in truth. Raising 4 boys, coming from the backhills of Indiana, when there was still moonshinin' being done, being a cataleptic and pretty darn smart and still teaching her sons to laugh and sing.

Yep... my mom was a wonder, for sure and true.
Thanks, Doc. You're a wonder, too.

That is a neat and beautiful picture.

I'm greatly looking forward to seeing you this weekend. It made me just stupidly happy when you said you'd be there :)
