For instance, my Grandmother did NOT marry several times! She was only married once to my Grandfather, Francis Griffin and she lived with my step Grandfather, Wilbur until he passed away. My Grandmother, Donna Bruno had 5 children, 1 girl and 4 boys! I do not appreciate you taking a personal letter that I wrote to my grandmother and adding things like you wrote it!Donna's Grandaughterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02204141024166022726noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11838465.post-31207217302247801512008-05-02T17:36:00.000-06:002008-05-02T17:36:00.000-06:00DONNA BURNO WAS MY MOTHER-IN-LAW FOR MANY YEARS AN...DONNA BURNO WAS MY MOTHER-IN-LAW FOR MANY YEARS AND I LOVED HER DEARLY!

It's good t..."Pretty damned good for an old woman." It's good to have a reply ready when someone asks you how you are. I usually say "Fizzing like a bottle of pop" (which baffles my Californian grandchildren). But sometimes, conscious of all my aches and pains, I say: "How long have you got?" One answer I cannot give in my home country to the How are you? question is the SoCal "I'm good". Whatever happened to "Very well, thank you"?Jake Allsophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18352337319705848623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-11838465.post-14419314723400942112007-07-30T12:04:00.000-06:002007-07-30T12:04:00.000-06:00"Well upholstered"I love it!Donna would be one of ..."Well upholstered"<BR/><BR/>I love it!<BR/><BR/>Donna would be one of the "my most unforgetable character" memorialized in the pages of Readers' Digest.Cowtown Pattiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07384649567351202679noreply@blogger.com
