Grandma never made a lot of money, but she always spent less than she made. She always had some money she had saved to help out a friend or family member. I ought to know. Grandma gave us the money to buy the computer we needed. My brother could tell similar tales.
Some people make the world a better place for everyone.
Grandma was like that. There never was a chicken-pie supper at her church that Grandma didn't help kill and dress the chickens or wasn't in the kitchen cooking, serving and cleaning up afterwards. There never was a bazaar that she didn't help set up and run. Her home-made dinner rolls were world famous. People used to come just to buy them.
