MEMORIES... by Patricia Beck Hormell
Everyone says she had a fiery temper and was very feisty. I don't remember that - but what I do remember is how short she was. Maybe she used her temper to make up for her stature. What I remember most is a picture that she had hanging over her sofa in her home on Kensington Drive in Dayton, Ohio. It was a rather dark, gruesome picture of Gladiators and lions in a Roman arena. The picture always bothered me, I didn't like it, but couldn't help staring at it. On the brighter side, my grandmother always had cookies to share, and a friendly neighbor that would give me a bag full of nickel candy bars. Back then nickel candy bars were big and a real treat for a young girl.
