She was indeed a gracious lady; she raised three great kids, and she made the best sweet potato casserole I've ever tasted. She and my mother would have got on famously if they had lived in the same town!<br /><br />I think it would benefit anyone to write a tribute to their mom or dad, or even a letter of appreciation - whether they are living or not.Charles Kinnairdhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07651225996573989932noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7742879119843856939.post-11682614012449473542011-05-08T17:39:54.628-05:002011-05-08T17:39:54.628-05:00Charlie, I knew your mom as well, and all those th...Charlie, I knew your mom as well, and all those things are true. You have inspired me to write a tribute to my wonderful mom. I am working on it a we speak. Thank you for the inspiration. I am much like your mom in what it takes to be set for life...the Bible, Shakespeare, and an iPad work for me. My mom would have opted for the silver tea set.Mark Simsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7742879119843856939.post-21380512171206438522011-05-08T11:29:17.045-05:002011-05-08T11:29:17.045-05:00This is an eloquent tribute to your mother, Charli...This is an eloquent tribute to your mother, Charlie. As someone who teaches college English and works with scores of present and future English teachers, I appreciate the way folks like your mother have brought culture (in the best sense of that word) and its wisdom to so many students. Happy Mother's Day, Mary Kinnaird: your spirit animates many lives today.Steve Foxnoreply@blogger.com
