Grandma Letter ~~ August 1996


She wrote: 

Dear Shelby,

Thanks for the nice letter.  It is another gloomy day.  It is supposed to rain off & on all week.

Your Mom said they might come up this week.  If so, I will see if they will take the cactus back for you.

Our church had their festival this weekend.  I am sending you a list of some of the goodies you could get.  They have it on the church parking lot & in the church hall.  Donna & her crowd used to run the hot dog stand, but when Donna got sick they stopped it.

Mrs. Wallace has a birthday on the 28th & her niece Bunny had a party for her down at Collegeville at one of Bunny's daughter's home.  They just got back from Russia & other far places & next week they are going to rent a house at the beach for 2 weeks & have all the family down.  They have 4 daughters & a son.

I bought Mrs. Wallace an African violet for her birthday.  She said she wanted one & I saw some so thought it would be nice for her birthday.

Ruth comes home tomorrow.  I'm sure she enjoyed herself.

I am reading an account of the battles between Santa Anna & Sam Houston, by James Mitchner.

Well hon, no more news at this time, so take care & write soon. 

Love always,

Grandma

Love to Jack!
