Dear Marge:  This is stunningly beautiful!
What a fine tribute to your great-grandmother. My grandmother Reynolds, lived in Wainwright, Alberta and she was a wonderful poet. She started me writing when I was around ten years old and I owe her a debt of gratitude for that! I thought it was strange that your great-grands name was Wainwright and that's the name of the town where my Gran lived!

Love
Betty Lou

Oh Marge,

This is so lovely. You don't know how much it has touched me...a mother's approval...there is nothing greater in the world.

Thank you all~
Out the exterior my Great Grandmother was the elegance of grace personified~
Inside she bore the heart of a giant among women of her time~
She was soft when need be ... and a rock of love, loyalty and strength when others had need to rest their tears for awhile~

Yes, she would be proud of me this day ... for I try so hard to remember all that she was and dress myself in her traits~

Again, I appreciate the replies ... and BettyLou ... just another thread that entwines our lives, eh ?
*Huglets* to all~
