My Grandmother was very stern and had a very strong will. She loved her family very much and raised them during a time that was extremely difficult in our history, during the depression. She sacrificed a great deal to make sure that they had what she couldn't.  
  For me, most importantly, she constantly reminded me that I was very Special and that I could be or do anything I wanted to and that I should never let anyone put me down because of my age or anything else. She taught me the importance of hard work and of watching and seeing things grow. She instilled in all of her family the true meaning of NEVER giving up, and of staying with something or someone until the job is done and the ultimate results are accomplished. I could talk about her week upon week and the things she showed and taught me.
