I sit here and think of my grandmother she was always mama that is what we all called her. She was the glue in this family! She was a women before her time she tested her faith and left a man and a country that had betrayed her. She got a job sewing at May co. and put herself and two daughters through school at a time when being a single mother was almost unheard of!

She went on to become a teacher always the one who cared about her students and put them first. She would tutor them was at one school almost 35 years! And was always seeing a student who loved her dearly. "Hello Mrs Felder I am so and so" I would see this over and over. She made every uniform and dress I wore before age 15. Gave me a love of books I have to this day. Was funny sweet and kind. She will be missed.

RIP mama.
