I want you to know this about my Grandmother:

My Mother's Mother was born in Round Pond Maine, she died when my Mother was 14. My Grandmother on my Father's side was a nice lady, she was a big lady. According to my sister I was her favorite Grandson. I used to sit in her lap a lot. She would take fainting spells, we didn't know what they was, blood pressure or what. They had a house down in Vinalhaven. They sold it and moved up here to Portland. They bought a house up here in Portland and then had to sell it to get my father out of some kind of trouble that he got into, no one talks about that. She was a good cook. She helped cook the holiday dinners. She used to help my mother when my mother was sick, they called it a nervous breakdown in them days, I think it was some kind of mental breakdown. I don't remember a whole lot about her.
