    Notes:



    Memories: by Pat Hormell
    Anna was a very good cook. The grandchildren looked forward to a visit on the farm and grandmas home cooked meals. She made her own cottage cheese and butter, and fried fresh chicken in the butter. The Hormells produced and sold maple syrup. Maple syrup was the sweetener of choice in their home; even on hand cranked ice cream.
    When grandma Hormell visited us she would sit in front of our aquarium and watch the fish for hours; she thought they were fascinating. She was small in stature and quiet.
