Fondest Memories...
By Terry Herring Davis
Hello Smith/Herring/Stewart Family,
Although our daily lives have been restructured during this time we can all take comfort enjoying life's "simple pleasures" at home with our families. Terry Herring Davis is our contributor this month sharing her fondest memories of her grandmother, Othelia Herring for her 100th Birthday Tribute.
"My fondest memories with Grandma Herring is working with her at the Palmdale Laundromat and having her teaching me how to crochet."

The best marriage advice Grandma Herring gave Darrin and I was... "Don't put all your eggs in one basket"... Which personally means to me... "Don't tie all of your resources up into one bank."

Great Job Terry! Thanks for sharing these loving memories....
