15. There are
grandmas and THERE ARE GRANDMAS. Grandma Cardwell was a kid grandma—not like
Grandma Neely who I was never sure liked kids. It’s strange for she had ten of
her own while Grandma Cardwell had only six.
Well -- seven if you counted Aunt Lily. Grandma Cardwell (whom we called
Granny) was first married to Sam Davis. In some argument , which I will talk
about later, Sam was killed in an ax attack. Granny later married James
Anderson Cardwell with whom she had her six children.
The two Grandmas were not on intimate terms. Although three
of the Neely children married three of the Cardwell children family events were
attended by both Grandmas. Tomorrow I
will report a story which honors Grandma
Cardwell.
