Silent Pain

Posted September 5, 2011 6:28 PM
This is my Daddy's Grandparents. He was a Southern Baptist Minister at a small church in Alvord,TX.  He was also a farmer.  She enjoyed hand-sewing and crocheting.  I suppose she made a quilt, hot pads, dolls, of something for everyone of her grandchildren, great and great-great grandchildren.  Just before she went to be with our Lord, she made me a satin and lace-covered Brides' Bible.  I attached it to my bouquet, as did my oldest daughter during her wedding. They lived in a nursing home during the last few years of thier lives. She was only thirteen years-old and he was twenty-one when they married.  The extraordinarily celebrated SEVENTY-FIVE years of marriage! He passed away the next year, and she passed away the day prior to our wedding on August 22, 1986.
