    My great grandmother mowed her own lawn till she was 92. She couldn't pull start the mower so she pushed it up to the corner store and they would start it for her. She'd push it back home and mow the grass. Probably the most godly, sweet, kind, and best human beings you'd ever wanna meet. Same church for over 50 years. Passed at 96. We miss you Nanny Ann

    Reminds me of my grandma. She was always busy cleaning the house, mowing the lawn, and volunteering her time at the thrift store on base. She always brought home dvds to add to her collection that she'd say she was going to watch one day when she got to the point where she couldn't do her usual things around the house. Well, in 2019 after she went to the Dr to inquire about why she had a continuous cough and severe pain in her spine..she cried and told me she was diagnosed with stage 4 lung cancer which spread throughout her whole body. She didn't want to fight it cause she was too old she said and being it was basically too late too...She was gone after a few months, she was 93. Only the pain stopped her. I've yet to meet anyone as brave and just so busy as her. Oh yeah, she was also luckily enough to know her great, great grandson, my grandson.
