Thanks again, Brandon, for connecting us to loved ones and life as they lived it. I’ll call Charlotte Adkins to tell her about our grandmothers visiting in case she hasn’t seen this. I especially appreciated the comment on Pearl sewing and embroidering Christmas presents. A small glimpse into the past, and so meaningful. Jan
