Dear All!

As I am going through (still) my mother-in-law's things, I have found many of her smock style aprons. She will never wear any of these again, and of her possessions to remember her by, this isn't going to be it. Some look like they have never been used, while a few are rags. Would any of you wonderful ladies be interested in any of them [the non-rag ones of course]? Otherwise, they will be donated to our local Salvation Army. I remember a while back emails about "grandmother's apron."

You all don't know how much enjoyment I get from this web list. My mother-in-law is barely communicating with us now so her stories of what it was like to come to America are long gone. She has progressed to middle stage Alzheimer's Disease. My only wish is for you to continue sharing your incredible stories with others, and share the good with the not-so good. Today's children need to know that life isn't all fun, that life is work.

Again, thank you all for sharing your stories.
