Melba is a very special granny, for she is our grandma. She grew up during the depression and had to wait until eighth grade to get her first pair of new shoes. She loved the shoes so much that she continued putting cardboard in the soles so they would last. Grandma loved children and taught elementary school for 34 years. She also loved cooking chicken and dumplings, going fishing and picking wildflowers. On January 4th grandpa passed away and she was heartbroken. They had been married almost 62 years. When we asked her what kind of flowers she would like, she said, “Oh, I would love wildflowers and pink roses, they are our favorite.” It was so wonderful to see her smile when she saw the beautiful flowers. We love you grandma.
