  1. I really like this! My Grandmother died at 102 and was born in 1898, so she saw the world go from horse and buggy to moon landings and beyond. I think I will make a list of things I remember most about her. Thanks for the inspiration!

Thanks for writing me back!

This life only works with Jesus. The next life is a continuation of this one—make sure you spend it with Jesus. Jesus is the only way to God the Father!
