I look up to my great-grandma. I look up to her because she was a strong and steady woman. She was a powerful old lady and made through a lot in her life time. She lived during both world wars, the depression, he husband abandoning her with four kids, and much more. She would tell me stories of her life and they would always be so interesting and full of life. A prominent story I remember her telling me was the one about her mother and grandmother coming home and telling her they were able to vote. She was such a stubborn woman, strong in her roots, and very intelligent! She was a English teacher for her whole life, and still had time to take care of her four children without any help. She even went out with a bang, dying on 12-12-12, which is a date that won't occur for another 1000 years. I love her some much and am sad she had to leave us.
