This picture is from Christmas in 1997. Pictured are all of the current Cason cousins with our grandfather’s Mom. We called her Granny and she and Gramps lived in Jackson, Tennessee. This was our last Christmas with Granny, she passed away the following fall. Recently, Charlotte has become enamored with Granny because she made me a beautiful doll and bear when I was little that I have since passed on to Charlotte. Charlotte named her Prettier and she very frequently tells me how special and old she is.
I have very fond memories of visiting Gramps and Granny at their home in Jackson. They are the only great-grandparents that lived long enough for me to have memories of, although I did meet others before they passed away. Granny was very creative and crafty and I credit a lot of my passion for creating things to something that I received from her. She made beautiful Christmas ornaments and Easter ornaments that I still have and use today.
